Abstract
In order to increase the heat capacity of nano and micro satellites, the development of a heat storage material for nano and micro satellites has been performed. It is desirable that the heat storage materials for nano and micro satellites have the characteristic of not phase change but crystal transformation for the heat storage. Trans-1,4-polybutadien transforms crystal structure at the temperature of heat storage. Trans-1,4-polybutadien is produced and the heat storage performance is measured. It is clarified that the produced trans-1,4-polybutadien has 80 J/g of heat storage performance. This value corresponding to 70 % of heat storage performance pointed out in the previous literature.
