Caloric effects in ferroic materials
… systems that do not use harmful fluids. Magnetocaloric, electrocaloric and mechanocaloric materials have been studied independently as potential replacement of these fluids refrigerants but each has its own limitations. More recently, multicaloric materials that respond to multiple fields have …

Exploring new materials for caloric cooling
Caloric materials produce nominally reversible thermal changes when subjected to an applied driving field. These materials are widely considered a potential replacement to the environmentally harmful refrigerant fluids that are currently used in vapour compression systems. Barocaloric materials …

Electrocaloric and barocaloric effects in organic materials
Electrocaloric (EC) and barocaloric (BC) materials undergo reversible thermal changes in response to changes in applied electric field and pressure, respectively. These materials could potentially be exploited in novel solid-state cooling systems that may replace current vapour-compression systems, …

Elastocaloric properties of Natural Rubber for Solid-State Cooling Technologies
… Solid-state cooling technology, based on caloric effects, represents a promising alternative, with elastocaloric cooling identified as one of the most suitable candidates for replacing conventional air-cooling systems. In this framework, natural rubber (NR), a well-known renewable …
