Practical reference for encapsulating a translucent PCM as a DIY secondary-glazing panel behind an existing window. Container choice: polycarbonate (twin-wall) is the best transluc…
The cheapest cooling is the cooling you never have to make: the building envelope sets the load every downstream machine must meet. Collects structural insulated panels, aircrete (…
Which phase-change materials are translucent enough to sit in a window, and how they're packaged. Ranking: salt hydrates (CaCl2·6H2O) are the only bulk PCM naturally clear in BOTH …

Three sources that would close the last quantitative gap on translucent-PCM glazing (numeric ASTM-style haze + long-term optical durability) were Cloudflare/paywall-blocked to WebF…
Next: Via institutional/library access, retrieve the 3 blocked papers below, extract their haze / yellowing numbers, and update translucent-pcm-glazing.md (haze & cycle-durability section).
