The use of phase change materials (PCMs) for heat storage and as a heat source has become an important aspect for energy management. Some PCMs store energy when in a non-equilibrium state (a supercooling state), and supply energy when released from this state. This means PCMs have the ability to sustain heat energy for long periods and select the heat supply timing. 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol (AMP), a solid-solid PCM, stores about 264 J/g of heat energy at the crystal transition temperature of about 78 °C. AMP has the attractive characteristic of storing heat energy in its solid supercooling state, similar to solid-liquid PCMs. In addition, AMP crystallizes from the supercooling state and releases heat energy of about 140 J/g during the heating process. These positive attributes make AMP a good candidate to assist in heating a system. This study applied this characteristic to methods handling the exoergic heat energy of the crystallization of AMP. First, the thermal properties are studied by DSC measurement and thermal cycle tests in different mass conditions. Second, the crystallization is investigated by observation of crystal growth. The results show that the supercooling state crystallizes with exoergic heat during the heating process. It turns out that the crystal nucleation rate (1/s) highly depends on the temperature and AMP mass. The crystal growth rate (μm/s) is acquired in this experiment. By using this information, it is possible to handle the exoergic heat of the crystallization from the supercooling state by changing the AMP mass and minimum temperature during cooling. Moreover, the heat energy that is kept in the supercooling state can be also controlled by crystal nucleus addition or impact.
