Thermal regulating building materials and other construction components containing phase change materials

A material for energy management and peak energy reduction in a building structure, comprising:

• a foam base insulation material;
• a first phase change material dispersed within the foam base insulation material;
• an anti-fungal additive dispersed within the foam base insulation material;
• and
• a functional polymeric phase change material dispersed within the foam base insulation material that dynamically absorbs and releases heat to adjust heat transfer at or within a temperature stabilizing range and having at least one phase change temperature in the range between −10° C. and 100° C. and a phase change enthalpy of at least 5 Joules per gram, the functional polymeric phase change material including a plurality of polymer chains, the plurality of polymer chains including a backbone chain and a plurality of side chains, wherein a portion of the plurality side chains are mechanically entangled with the foam base insulation material.
