Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of temperature control coatings, in particular to a high-temperature radiation refrigeration coating with a protective function and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] With the continuous warming of the global climate, the surface temperature rises, and the urban heat island effect is greatly intensified. The proportion of refrigeration energy consumption continues to rise, and the traditional vapor compression cooling strategy, such as air conditioning, consumes a large amount of fossil fuels, leading to increased carbon emissions, further exacerbating the global climate. As a zero-energy and zero-pollution refrigeration technology, radiation refrigeration provides a new opportunity for sustainable carbon neutralization.

[0003] Radiation refrigeration can transfer the heat of the earth to outer space in the form of thermal radiation through the atmospheric window (8-13 µm), without any energy input. During the day, it achieves a cooling effect below the ambient temperature by minimizing solar energy (0.3-2.5 µm) absorption. This zero-energy and efficient cooling method provides new strategies and opportunities for the development of global energy-saving fields. At present, through the design of spectral selective materials with high reflectivity of solar spectrum and high emissivity of atmospheric window, all-weather radiation refrigeration has been achieved. For example, the invention patent CN115558351 provides a method for improving the radiation refrigeration performance of radiation refrigeration coating, which improves the radiation refrigeration effect by fully utilizing the reflection of fillers to light and the radiation of heat; the invention patent CN116445074 provides a non-energy consumption radiation refrigeration coating, a preparation method and application thereof. The prepared cooling coating has significantly improved cooling efficiency and has broad application prospects. However, these coatings are high in cost, poor in mechanical properties, and single in function, and are only suitable for sub-ambient radiation refrigeration under room temperature conditions. They cannot work stably for a long time in complex outdoor environments. For high-temperature environments such as data centers, vehicles, and communication base stations, due to the huge internal heat, the temperature is usually higher than the ambient temperature, and the refrigeration application cannot be used for long-term exposure to outdoor conditions.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a high-temperature radiation refrigeration coating material with a protective function that is resistant to high temperature, corrosion, wear and tear, and high thermal conductivity, in order to greatly expand the potential applications of this energy-saving cooling technology. SUMMARY

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a high-temperature radiation refrigeration coating with a protective function with good performance.

[0006] Another technical problem to be solved by the present application is to provide a preparation method of the high-temperature radiation refrigeration coating with a protective function.

[0007] To solve the above problems, the high-temperature radiation refrigeration coating with protection function has the characteristics that the coating is composed of the following raw materials in mass fraction: radiation refrigeration pigment 20-35 parts, protective filler 4-6 parts, binder 20-40 parts, dispersing agent 3-5 parts, wetting agent 3-5 parts, defoaming agent 1-3 parts, leveling agent 1-3 parts and di-n-butyl ether 15-25 parts.

[0016] The preparation method of the high-temperature radiation refrigeration coating with protection function as described above comprises the following steps:

[0017] (1) weighing according to the proportion;

[0018] 2. The high-temperature radiation refrigeration coating is prepared by the following steps: 1. mixing and dispersing uniformly di-n-butyl ether, a binder, a wetting agent, a dispersing agent, an antifoaming agent and a leveling agent, and then adding the radiation refrigeration pigment and the protective filler to the mixture, stirring at a rotating speed of 400-800 r / min for 60-100 min by using a high-speed dispersion machine, and then dispersing and grinding by using a sand mill or a ball mill until the fineness is 10-20 microns, and then filtering by using a 100-200 mesh silk screen to obtain the high-temperature radiation refrigeration coating, and sealing and storing;

[0019] 4. The surface of the substrate is sandblasted by using quartz stone or brown corundum with a particle size of 1-5 microns, so that the cleanliness of the surface of the substrate reaches the requirement of Sa 2.5-3.0 level.

[0020] 5. The high-temperature radiation refrigeration coating with the protective function is obtained by the following steps: spraying twice by using 0.8 MPa compressed air under the conditions that the ambient temperature is 15-30 DEG C and the relative humidity of air is less than 85%, and then curing at room temperature after spraying.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:

[0022] 1.

Therefore, the coating is added with a protective layer due to a series of special properties of these materials, and the practicability for outdoor application is effectively improved.

[0024] 3、The application adds aluminum oxide (Al2O3), silicon oxide (SiO2), barium sulfate (BaSO4), calcium carbonate (CaCO3) with different energy band structures as the radiative cooling pigment, the pigment uses several different band gap fillers to coordinate the contradiction between the refractive index and the extinction coefficient, so that the pigment has excellent spectral selection performance, shows high refractive index (n) and low extinction coefficient (k), which further improves the original dielectric contrast, realizes effective multiple scattering of sunlight. In addition, the complex crystal structure and the appropriate bond strength cause the infrared phonon vibration, thereby improving the light reflection performance and the infrared radiation performance of the material, and showing good radiative cooling performance (as shown in Figures 1-3 ).
