Summary/Abstract: Building facades have shifted from traditional materials, such as brick and stone, to modern layered systems that integrate various materials to improve energy performance. Ventilated facades are a notable example of innovation, consisting of a layered system with a protective outer layer, a ventilated air zone and a thermally insulated inner layer. These facades contribute significantly to improving the thermal efficiency of the building and reducing energy consumption.Phase-change materials are used to optimize ventilated facades by storing and releasing heat energy during phase transitions. PCMs are organic or inorganic and even eutectic with specific advantages and disadvantages in each case. Further research will focus on developing fire-resistant PCN materials, improving long-term performance and analysing costs to increase the durability and efficiency of these materials in modern construction.
