Connecting materials, modules and systems through phase-change storage and micro- and nanoencapsulation, bringing thermal management into high-density computing.
PHASE CHANGE MATERIAL / PCM
Micro- and nanoencapsulation for thermal management.
PCM stores and releases heat. UltraST composites and MOF-catalyzed microencapsulation bring that capability into modules, enclosures and functional substrates.
Research & quality
PCM quality, backed by certification.
Passive Edge is a Quality Association PCM (RAL) member. PE-O-5 has earned the RAL Quality Mark.

Equipment-room cooling retrofit
Passive Edge supplied high-conductivity solid-state PCM as the thermal buffer in a cold-storage temperature-control system.
The existing air conditioner was retained. Cabinet temperatures stayed within the project's safe range during a four-hour cooling interruption test.
