Frequently Asked Question
What is PCM IN23 and what applications is it best suited for?
PCM IN23 is a sub-zero inorganic phase change material designed for low-temperature applications, making it ideal for pharmaceutical logistics, vaccine preservation, biomedical shipments, and frozen food transport. It serves as an eco-friendly alternative to dry ice, offering consistent temperature control over extended periods, even under challenging ambient environments.
How does IN23 compare to dry ice?
Unlike dry ice, which sublimates and can pose handling and safety hazards, IN23 maintains a stable, consistent frozen or near-frozen temperature over extended periods without requiring sublimation. It’s also more eco-friendly.
How long can IN23 maintain frozen or near-frozen temperature during transit or storage?
The actual hold-over time depends on factors such as ambient temperature, insulation quality, packaging design, and thermal load (mass of goods). You should test in your specific setup to get realistic estimates.
Is IN23 reusable or rechargeable?
Yes — IN23 is designed for repeated thermal cycling. The lifespan (number of cycles before noticeable degradation) depends on handling, exposure to extremes, and how much mechanical stress it sees.
How should IN23 be “charged” / preconditioned before use?
Before deployment, cool or freeze IN23 in a controlled environment so it starts in the correct solid/frozen state. This ensures it can absorb heat effectively during transport.
