Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of radiation cooling, and relates to a porous radiation cooling flexible film and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] The use of traditional air conditioning and refrigeration systems has exacerbated the greenhouse effect. In view of the principles of sustainable development, it is crucial to explore alternatives to passive cooling. Radiative cooling technology, which uses the low temperature of outer space to radiate heat, has been increasingly recognized in recent years as a passive cooling solution that can solve urgent problems, and has made significant progress in both theoretical research and practical applications. This cooling technology requires the use of materials and structures with specific optical properties, including high solar reflectivity (0.3-2.5μm) and highly selective infrared (IR) emissivity (8-13μm). Studies have shown that a variety of materials and structures exhibit effective radiative cooling performance, including multilayer photonic structures, hybrid optical metamaterials, hierarchical fiber materials, and porous polymer structures.

[0003] In recent years, there has been increasing interest in the development of materials for large-scale radiative cooling. As a result, research progress has shifted from complex multilayer photonic structures and hybrid optical metamaterials to porous materials that can be prepared in batches. The effectiveness of porous materials in radiative cooling relies on high solar reflectance achieved through Mie scattering, which is affected by the refractive index transition across the polymer-air boundary. This scattering mechanism becomes more pronounced when the pore size of the porous material approaches the target wavelength. Various techniques have been used to fabricate porous polymer materials, including phase inversion, electrospinning, and dielectric embedding-extraction. However, these preparation methods usually require the use of solvents or particles that may pose risks to human health or the environment. To avoid these risks, a recent technique has proposed the use of environmentally friendly water-soluble sodium chloride particles as sacrificial templates to prepare porous materials, and its effectiveness has also been demonstrated. However, it remains a challenge to obtain sodium chloride with smaller, more controllable particle size and narrower particle size distribution to improve the optical properties of the resulting porous structures.

[0004] Therefore, in the art, it is desired to develop a method for preparing sodium chloride with smaller, more controllable particle size and narrower particle size distribution, and use the obtained sodium chloride to prepare a porous radiative cooling flexible film to improve the radiative cooling effect of the film.

[0043] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below by specific implementation methods. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments are only to help understand the present invention and should not be regarded as specific limitations of the present invention.

[0044] Unless otherwise specified, some of the raw material information used in the examples and comparative examples of the present invention is as follows:

[0045] PDMS precursor: Sylgard 184, Dow Corning;

[0046] Curing agent: Sylgard 184, Dow Corning.

[0047] Example 1

[0048] In this embodiment, a method for preparing a porous radiative cooling flexible film is provided, and the preparation method comprises:

[0049] (1) 5 mL of a saturated aqueous solution of NaCl was gradually added to 80 mL of ethanol, and then the resulting mixture was subjected to continuous ultrasonic treatment for 180 seconds. After sufficient precipitation, the white NaCl precipitated crystals were collected by centrifugation, and then dried in an oven at 80° C. for 24 hours to obtain ultrafine NaCl particles with a particle size distribution of about 6-8 μm;

[0050] (2) The PDMS precursor and the curing agent are mixed at a mass ratio of 10:1 to obtain a PDMS mixed solution, and the PDMS mixed solution is mixed with the ultrafine NaCl particles obtained in step (1) at a mass ratio of 1:1 to ensure that the NaCl particles are properly dispersed in the viscous PDMS mixed solution. After sufficient mixing, the obtained mixture is poured into a flat rectangular PTFE mold to control the shape and size of the porous PDMS film, and then the mixture is cured at 80°C for 3 hours, taken out of the mold, and immersed in a water bath at 75°C for 12 hours to remove NaCl, and finally dried in a hot oven at 80°C for 3 hours to eliminate residual moisture, thereby obtaining the porous radiative cooling flexible film with a thickness of 1 mm.

[0051] The porous radiative cooling flexible film provided in this embodiment has excellent flexibility and presents a white appearance (eg Figure 1 ), indicating that it has high reflectivity in the visible light spectrum. Its SEM image is shown in Figure 2 As shown, it can be seen that the radiative cooling flexible film has a porous structure, that is, as expected, NaCl does produce a porous structure in the PDMS film, and the micropores in the sample are consistent with the size of the NaCl template.

[0052] The SEM image of the ultrafine NaCl particles provided in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, it can be seen that the size range of NaCl particles is concentrated around 6-8 μm, and the formation of smaller NaCl crystals is attributed to the effect of ultrasound on the nucleation rate.

[0053] Example 2

[0054] In this embodiment, a method for preparing a porous radiative cooling flexible film is provided, and the preparation method comprises:

[0055] (1) 5 mL of NaCl saturated aqueous solution was gradually added to 70 mL of ethanol, and then the resulting mixture was subjected to continuous ultrasonic treatment for 150 seconds. After sufficient precipitation, the white NaCl precipitated crystals were collected by centrifugation, and then dried in an oven at 70° C. for 18 hours to obtain ultrafine NaCl particles with a particle size distribution of about 6-8 μm;

[0056] (2) The PDMS precursor and the curing agent are mixed at a mass ratio of 10:1 to obtain a PDMS mixed solution, and the PDMS mixed solution is mixed with the ultrafine NaCl particles obtained in step (1) at a mass ratio of 1:1 to ensure that the NaCl particles are properly dispersed in the viscous PDMS mixed solution. After sufficient mixing, the obtained mixture is poured into a flat rectangular PTFE mold to control the shape and size of the porous PDMS film, and then the mixture is cured at 70°C for 2h, taken out of the mold, and immersed in a 70°C water bath for 10h to remove NaCl, and finally dried in a hot oven at 70°C for 2h to eliminate residual moisture, thereby obtaining the porous radiative cooling flexible film with a thickness of 1mm.

[0057] Example 3

[0058] In this embodiment, a method for preparing a porous radiative cooling flexible film is provided, and the preparation method comprises:

[0059] (1) 5 mL of NaCl saturated aqueous solution was gradually added to 90 mL of ethanol, and then the resulting mixture was subjected to continuous ultrasonic treatment for 210 seconds. After sufficient precipitation, the white NaCl precipitated crystals were collected by centrifugation, and then dried in an oven at 90° C. for 30 hours to obtain ultrafine NaCl particles with a particle size distribution of about 6-8 μm;

[0060] (2) The PDMS precursor and the curing agent are mixed at a mass ratio of 10:1 to obtain a PDMS mixed solution, and the PDMS mixed solution is mixed with the ultrafine NaCl particles obtained in step (1) at a mass ratio of 1:1 to ensure that the NaCl particles are properly dispersed in the viscous PDMS mixed solution. After sufficient mixing, the obtained mixture is poured into a flat rectangular PTFE mold to control the shape and size of the porous PDMS film, and then the mixture is cured at 90°C for 4 hours, taken out of the mold, and immersed in a water bath at 80°C for 14 hours to remove NaCl, and finally dried in a hot oven at 90°C for 4 hours to eliminate residual moisture, thereby obtaining the porous radiative cooling flexible film with a thickness of 1 mm.

[0061] Comparative Example 1

[0062] The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the preparation method of NaCl particles in step (1) is different, as follows:

[0063] 5 mL of NaCl saturated aqueous solution was gradually added to 80 mL of ethanol, and after standing for precipitation, the white NaCl precipitated crystals were collected by centrifugation, and then dried in an oven at 80°C for 24 h to obtain ultrafine NaCl particles with a particle size distribution concentrated around 40-50 μm.

[0064] Comparative Example 2

[0065] The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the preparation method does not include step (1), and the ultrafine NaCl particles in Example 1 are directly replaced by purchased McLean GR sodium chloride particles (with a particle size concentrated in the range of 100-300 μm).

[0066] Comparative Example 3

[0067] The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the preparation method does not include step (1), and purchased edible salt particles (with a particle size greater than 500 μm) are directly used to replace the ultrafine NaCl particles in Example 1.

[0068] Comparative Example 4

[0069] The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the preparation method does not include step (1), and purchased McLean GR sodium chloride particles (with a particle size concentrated in the range of 100-300 μm) are directly used to replace the ultrafine NaCl particles in Example 1, and the mass ratio of sodium chloride particles to PDMS mixed solution is 5:1.

[0070] Comparative Example 5

[0071] The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that the preparation method does not include step (1), and purchased edible salt particles (with a particle size greater than 500 μm) are directly used to replace the ultrafine NaCl particles in Example 1, and the mass ratio of the edible salt particles to the PDMS mixed solution is 5:1.

[0072] Comparative Example 6

[0073] The only difference between this comparative example and Example 1 is that no ultrafine NaCl particles are added in the preparation step, that is, a pure PDMS film is obtained.

[0074] The solar reflectivity test results of the radiative cooling flexible films provided in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-6 of the present invention are shown in the figure below: Figure 4 As shown, the infrared emissivity test results of the radiative cooling flexible film provided in Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, Comparative Example 4, Comparative Example 5, and Comparative Example 6 are shown in FIG. Figure 5As shown, it can be seen that the ultrafine porous PDMS film provided in Example 1 can reach a high emissivity of 0.95 in the atmospheric window (8-13 μm) and a reflectivity of 0.85 in the solar spectrum (300-2500 nm). In particular, it has a reflectivity of 0.95 in the visible light range (400-780 nm), which corresponds to the wavelength range with the most solar radiation. And it can be seen that all porous PDMS show higher solar reflectivity and infrared emissivity than pure PDMS, highlighting the role of porous structure in enhancing the optical properties of radiation cooling. In particular, the porous PDMS film prepared with a smaller particle size shows a higher solar reflectivity. This is because as the NaCl particle size decreases, the pore size also decreases and approaches the wavelength of the solar spectrum, thereby improving the solar scattering efficiency. It is worth noting that the solar reflectivity of the ultrafine porous PDMS film even exceeds the solar reflectivity of the film provided by Comparative Examples 4 and 5, and their NaCl to PDMS ratio increases to 5:1. This observation suggests that only a small concentration of ultrafine NaCl particles is required to achieve better optical properties for radiative cooling.

[0075] Under hot sunny weather conditions, the radiative cooling performance of the porous radiative cooling flexible films provided in Example 1 and Comparative Example 3 was evaluated as follows: a wooden building model was placed on the roof, and a thermocouple was placed inside the model. A 5 cm × 5 cm × 1 mm film sample was attached to the top of the building model. For comparison, the temperature of the model covered by the bare model was also recorded, and the results are shown in Figure 1. Figure 6 As shown, it can be seen that during the period of 12:00-13:30, the average temperature of the model covered with the porous radiative cooling flexible film provided in Example 1 is 7°C lower than that of the bare model, and is 3°C lower than that of the model covered with the porous radiative cooling flexible film provided in Comparative Example 3, which indicates that the porous PDMS film prepared by using the ultrafine NaCl particles prepared by ultrasonic precipitation as a template has excellent cooling performance.

[0076] After testing, it was found that the porous radiative cooling flexible film provided in Example 1-2 had similar test results to the porous radiative cooling flexible film provided in Example 1.

[0077] The applicant declares that the present invention uses the above-mentioned embodiments to illustrate the porous radiative cooling flexible film and its preparation method and application, but the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, that is, it does not mean that the present invention must rely on the above-mentioned embodiments to be implemented.
