RETRACTED: Preparation and thermal properties of form stable paraffin phase change material encapsulation

This article has been retracted at the request of the Editor-in-Chief and Author. Please see Elsevier Policy on Article Withdrawal (http://www.elsevier.com/locate/withdrawalpolicy).Reason: This article duplicates significant parts of a paper that had already appeared in Sol. Energ., 80 (2008) 1561–1567, doi:10.1016/j.solener.2005.12.008. One of the conditions of submission of a paper for publication is that authors declare explicitly that the paper is not under consideration for publication elsewhere. Re-use of any data should be appropriately cited. As such this article represents a severe abuse of the scientific publishing system. The scientific community takes a very strong view on this matter and we apologize to readers of the journal that this was not detected during the submission process.
