Maria Telkes’ Glauber’s-salt solar house — leaks and layering taught humility.
상변화소재 did not arrive as a finished commodity. NASA / Telkes 1940s–70s; building PCM 2000s around United States / Germany still explains who makes it and which tests it sits in.
Ten dated points, five eras and three milestones below are the spine — not a complete industrial history.

Knowing this timeline is how to read a mill certificate without treating 상변화소재 as timeless.
