Conclusions 2792.4 ± 1.3% Note: The heat treatment of the Carbobead CP was only done at 1200 ◦C for different periods. Four different types of particulate materials were studied as a part of selecting suitable particulates to be used in particle-based CSP systems. These particulate materials were fracking Riyadh white sand, Riyadh red sand, ilmenite, and one engineered particulate material called Carbobead CP. Four samples with approximately 210–400 micrometer particle sizes were taken from each appropriately sifted material. The effect of aging on the particulate materials was investigated by heating the particulates to different temperatures of 800, 1000, and 1200 ◦C for 6 h. To observe the particulate behavior when exposed to cyclic temperature change, the cyclic heating at 1200 ◦C was further executed for the particulates for 8 h, and then they were cooled down to room temperature. This process continued until reaching 500 h of heating. The characterization of agglomeration behavior after heating at high temperature, thermophysical and optical properties represented by weighted solar absorptance, and specific heat properties were investigated. An EDX and XRD study relating to an elemental analysis was conducted on the crystalline phases that existed in the samples that were more susceptible to agglomeration. The following are the main conclusions: 1. We observed that all of the particulates showed considerable agglomeration, except for the white sand. 2. The color of the red sand changed entirely to white. 3. The white sand turned more whitish, while the Carbobead CP exhibited a slight color change compared to the original. 4. There was slight agglomeration in the Carbobead CP sample at 1200 ◦C. According to the appearance, the solar absorptance was very low for the red sand (40.46%) and white sand (36.11%), while the Carbobead CP showed high solar absorptance (85.04%) after aging. 5. The white sand and red sand turned completely into pure silica after the cyclic heating, and this was evident in the heat analysis and qualitative elements. 6. The chemical composition of the white sand was almost constant after the cyclic heating, indicating that the material had high durability and reliability. Furthermore, matching the cp values with the pure silica values after the aging test showed the positive effects of cyclic heating at high temperatures. However, the lower solar absorptance, which was slightly decreased after the cyclic heating, remains as the major issue. 7. EDX and XRD analyses of the red sand showed that the aging test converted its chemical composition entirely into pure silica by removing all the other elements and impurities. 8. A slight decrease in the solar absorbance was observed in the Carbobead CP from what it was “as received” after cyclic heating. This decrease did not continue after 32 h of cyclic heating. The EDX and XRD results showed an almost similar chemical structure stability after cyclic heating.
