Abstract

Outdoor radiative cooling surfaces passively lose heat by reflecting solar irradiation and emitting infrared radiation to cold deep space through the atmospheric sky window (8–13 µm), thereby achieving sub-ambient temperature. Ultrawhite radiative cooling paints are an emerging technology offering scalable solutions for cooling and passive water harvesting wherein surface wettability plays a key role. This work, examines how radiative cooling paint pigment and binder formulations affect surface morphology, roughness, and dynamic wettability. Samples are prepared with three different nanoparticulate pigments, calcium carbonate (CaCO3), barium sulfate (BaSO4), and hexagonal boron nitride (hBN); two binders, including an acrylic and a waterborne silicone-modified polyurethane dispersion (SILIKOPUR 8081); and pigment solid volume concentrations from 0% to 80% v/v. The CaCO3 and BaSO4 pigments produced paints with rougher textures and higher contact angles due to their pigment particle morphology. While high solar reflectance was achieved across various pigment and binder combinations, wettability exhibited a complex trend with pigment concentration, indicating that maximizing reflectance does not necessarily optimize wetting behavior. This expanded understanding on how pigment type, binder and concentration influence wettability, offering pathways to design coatings with tailored spectral and wetting properties for both self-cleaning paints and passive water harvesting applications

新兴超白辐射冷却涂料的动态润湿性
室外辐射冷却面通过大气天空窗口(8 ~ 13µm)反射太阳辐射,向寒冷的深空发射红外辐射,被动散热,达到亚环境温度。超白辐射冷却涂料是一项新兴技术,为冷却和被动集水提供可扩展的解决方案,其中表面润湿性起着关键作用。这项工作,检查辐射冷却涂料颜料和粘合剂配方如何影响表面形态,粗糙度和动态润湿性。样品由三种不同的纳米颗粒颜料制备,碳酸钙(CaCO3)、硫酸钡(BaSO4)和六方氮化硼(hBN);两种粘合剂,包括丙烯酸和水性硅改性聚氨酯分散体(SILIKOPUR 8081);而颜料固体体积浓度从0%到80% v/v。CaCO3和BaSO4颜料由于它们的颜料颗粒形态而产生了更粗糙的纹理和更高的接触角。虽然在各种颜料和粘合剂组合中都可以获得较高的太阳反射率,但润湿性随颜料浓度的变化呈现出复杂的趋势,这表明最大化反射率并不一定能优化润湿行为。这扩大了对颜料类型、粘合剂和浓度如何影响润湿性的理解,为设计具有定制光谱和润湿性的涂料提供了途径,既适用于自清洁涂料,也适用于被动集水应用
