Abstract

Passive evaporative cooling materials harness perspiration or ambient humidity to dissipate surface heat through vaporization. This review systematically examines advanced evaporative cooling materials for applications in textiles, food preservation, buildings, photovoltaic (PV) panels, batteries, flexible electronics, thermoelectric generators (TEGs), etc. It discusses fundamental mechanisms, structural designs, cooling power calculations, and wettability/hygroscopicity modulation strategies. Furthermore, the integration of extended functionalities, including humidity/thermal responsiveness, radiative cooling, heat conduction, and thermal insulation for performance optimization, is analyzed. While progress has been achieved, industrial applications face challenges in scalability, durability, and cost efficiency. Practical solutions involve optimizing material formulations, improving durability through protective strategies, developing scalable manufacturing methods, and long-term standardized testing. Addressing these challenges could accelerate technology widespread adoption, advancing thermal comfort, energy conservation, sustainable development, and transformation in thermal management systems.
先进的蒸发冷却材料:从设计到应用
被动蒸发冷却材料利用汗液或环境湿度通过蒸发消散表面热量。本文系统地综述了先进的蒸发冷却材料在纺织、食品保鲜、建筑、光伏(PV)板、电池、柔性电子产品、热电发电机等领域的应用。它讨论了基本机制、结构设计、冷却功率计算和润湿性/吸湿性调制策略。此外,还分析了扩展功能的集成,包括湿度/热响应性、辐射冷却、热传导和隔热性能优化。虽然取得了进展,但工业应用仍面临着可扩展性、持久性和成本效率方面的挑战。实际的解决方案包括优化材料配方,通过保护策略提高耐久性,开发可扩展的制造方法,以及长期的标准化测试。解决这些挑战可以加速技术的广泛采用,促进热舒适、节能、可持续发展和热管理系统的转型。

期刊介绍: Progress in Materials Science is a journal that publishes authoritative and critical reviews of recent advances in the science of materials. The focus of the journal is on the fundamental aspects of materials science, particularly those concerning microstructure and nanostructure and their relationship to properties. Emphasis is also placed on the thermodynamics, kinetics, mechanisms, and modeling of processes within materials, as well as the understanding of material properties in engineering and other applications. The journal welcomes reviews from authors who are active leaders in the field of materials science and have a strong scientific track record. Materials of interest include metallic, ceramic, polymeric, biological, medical, and composite materials in all forms. Manuscripts submitted to Progress in Materials Science are generally longer than those found in other research journals. While the focus is on invited reviews, interested authors may submit a proposal for consideration. Non-invited manuscripts are required to be preceded by the submission of a proposal. Authors publishing in Progress in Materials Science have the option to publish their research via subscription or open access. Open access publication requires the author or research funder to meet a publication fee (APC). Abstracting and indexing services for Progress in Materials Science include Current Contents, Science Citation Index Expanded, Materials Science Citation Index, Chemical Abstracts, Engineering Index, INSPEC, and Scopus.
