Scientists have sunlight coming on its surface that can reflect 95.5% of the new ultra-white paint developed that. Thanks to this incredible feature, something painted with this paint – a building for example – can cool down even under direct sunlight. This tremendous achievement also in the against global warming seems to be used to fight.
Publishing their work in Cell Reports Physical Science magazine, the team states that they tested the paint over a period of two days. When the sun was at its highest point in the sky, the surface painted with new paint was surrounding objects at least 1.7 ° C cooler than the. At night, it was 10 ° C below the ambient temperature.
Senior author from Purdue University Professor Xiulan Ruan, “single-layer particle-matrix paint in the form of high reliability, one beneath the easy implementation ambient temperature radiative cooling solution development is a permanent task” say and so many different can also be used to reduce the effects of global warming this solution He states that it is a field of application.
The ability to cool objects and buildings is quite exciting, and a development that could be incredibly beneficial for many industrial giants in our warming world. Such a solution can help not only keep the ambient temperatures of residential and commercial buildings low but also reduce cooling costs (including greenhouse gas emissions from both indirect and direct ways) in warehouses with perishable products and even in data centers. A building covered with this paint will have a lower indoor temperature and less need for air conditioning.
The paint is calcium carbonate part acrylic paint with a. The absence of a metallic part allows the paint to be used in outdoor telecommunication equipment.
Ruan says the paint’s manufacturing process is also compatible with the production process of commercial paints, and the cost is comparable and perhaps even cheaper. However, it does not forget to mention that the important point here is that the reliability of the paint is guaranteed to be suitable for long-term outdoor use.
The team is currently testing how safe the paint is in terms of environmental factors. The paint ultraviolet light will be exposed to, dust, water, and detergent and will also be tested on the surface of different realistic materials to measure whether they have the correct properties to replace existing dyes.
