A new type of white cooling paint has the potential to stop buildings from heating up as much, reducing their reliance on air conditioning, thereby decreasing resulting emissions.
Research showed that the new coating was capable of reflecting 95.5 percent of sunlight.
As a result of the greatly reflected sunlight, the cooling paint reduced the buildings temperature by 1.7ºC when compared to ambient air conditions. The engineers behind the development say that calcium carbonate particles in different…
