Dark-Colored Cool Pigments for Materials Exposed to the Sun IB-3039
For the building and automobile industries in need of dark-colored products that can stay cool in the sun, this technology uses fluorescent materials that re-radiate absorbed light rather than converting it all to heat. The Berkeley Lab invention promises a solar reflectance over 0.5 in dark colors — a significant improvement over commercially available … [Read more...] about Dark-Colored Cool Pigments for Materials Exposed to the Sun IB-3039
