Thermal energy storage in a supramolecular assembly of [C6H11NH3]+[CF3COO](C6H11 = cyclohexyl)

Abstract

A supramolecular compound [C6H11NH3]+[CF3COO] was synthesized. Investigation on the structure of 1 at different temperatures reveals that it is the disorder of the anions that plays a key role in thermal energy storage. Studies on the thermal and physical properties of 1 indicate that utilization of the sensible heat in 1 can significantly enhance its ability to store thermal energy.
