We present soft-template encapsulation of salt hydrate phase change materials (PCMs) using modified silica particles to both stabilize emulsions and serve as initiators for organocatalyzed photoredox ATRP. The resulting core-shell structures have high core loading and are robust to thermal cycling. Critically, this strategy eliminates the need for a reagent in the core phase, thus preserving purity, and offers the ability to tailor shell composition for desired applications.
