Buildings coated in a cement-based paint that “sweats” could help keep communities cool during the hottest days of the year. The substance is known as CCP-30, and its creators say initial tests ...

Thermal paint: MXene spray coating can harness infrared radiation for heating or cooling. ScienceDaily. Retrieved June 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2023 / 03 / 230330122748.htm.

A team of UCLA engineers and researchers has developed a new technique to make it feel up to 10 degrees Fahrenheit cooler ...

Passive radiative cooling utilizes that thermal energy can leave an object in the form of infrared radiation. All objects emit heat as infrared light -- trees, buildings, water and even humans.

Field trials on campus and at the San Fernando Swap Meet showed the experimental “tent” reduced mean radiant temperature to about 78°F, which is more than 10°F below what pe ...

Gan co-founded a spinoff company, Sunny Clean Water LLC, which is seeking partners to commercialize this technology. “One of the key innovations of our system is the ability to separate and retain the ...

The cooling device can emit these mid-infrared waves on both sides, therefore the need for the mirrors to direct the waves to the sky. But the visible and near-infrared waves from the sunlight ...

Hierarchically designed and eco-friendly CA film for passive protection of ice under sunlight via radiative cooling. Energy transfer process of ice systems at (A) low/middle and (B) high (>70.5°N ...

The discovery, which is tied to MXene’s ability to regulate the passage of ambient infrared radiation, could lead to advances in thermal clothing, heating elements and new materials for radiative ...

Passive cooling, like the shade a tree provides, has been around forever. Recently, researchers have been exploring how to turbo charge a passive cooling technique — known as radiative or sky cooling ...

In comparison to the passive cooling materials available in the market today, which allow the thermal infrared radiation from the body — body heat — to escape through its lightweight and porous ...
