The aim of the paper is to analyze the effect of the additives on thermal conductivity of the phase change material. The experiment about heat storage and heat release performance of the composite phase change material which uses sodium acetate trihydrate as host material is studied. The effect of the expanded graphite on the composite phase change material is investigated. The results show that: expanded graphite which can be dispersed evenly in the composite phase change material, the thermal stability is well, significantly improve the thermal conductivity of the composite phase change material.
