Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of building ceramics technology, specifically relating to a diopside crystalline glaze with radiative cooling function, its preparation method, and its application. Background Technology

[0002] As global warming intensifies, residents' demand for indoor cooling continues to rise. Currently, active cooling methods, mainly based on traditional air conditioning systems, rely on electricity, which accounts for about 10% of global energy consumption. This not only leads to significant carbon emissions but also further exacerbates global warming and the urban heat island effect.

[0003] Radiative cooling is a passive cooling method that requires no energy consumption. It relies on the intrinsic optical properties of materials to emit heat into outer space through atmospheric windows (8–13 μm) via thermal radiation, while simultaneously reducing the absorption of solar radiation (0.3–2.5 μm), thus achieving a cooling effect. Ceramic tiles are widely used building envelope materials in modern architecture, offering good weather resistance and easy construction, making them an ideal carrier for planned radiative cooling applications. However, current technologies for radiative cooling ceramics mainly rely on complex nanostructures or precious metal additives, resulting in complex processes, high costs, and difficulties in achieving large-scale production and widespread application using existing ceramic production lines.

[0004] Existing radiation-cooled ceramic materials mostly rely on functional powders to improve optical properties. For example, Chinese invention patent CN117756409A uses diatomaceous earth-supported mesoporous alumina, and CN119591321A uses nanoporous alumina and spinel doping to enhance scattering. The key raw materials used in these technologies are expensive, and the manufacturing process is complex, limiting their application in ordinary buildings. Chinese invention patent CN119822869A discloses a radiation-cooled exterior wall tile and its manufacturing process. By adding "cooling powder" to the glaze layer to improve reflection and emission capabilities, the ceramic tile adopts a double-glaze structure and uses Ba-containing raw materials with high refractive index, increasing the cost of raw materials and processes.

[0005] It is evident that existing radiative cooling ceramic technologies generally suffer from high raw material costs, difficulties in process control, and incompatibility with traditional ceramic production lines, hindering their rapid large-scale production in the building ceramics sector. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a building radiative cooling material that combines high performance and low cost to meet the demands of green building and sustainable development.

[0039] Figure 3 The solar reflectance and infrared emissivity spectra of the diopside crystalline glaze of Example 1 are shown. Detailed Implementation

[0040] To better understand the present invention, it will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. However, the implementation of the present invention is not limited thereto. The described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0041] In the following embodiments and comparative examples of the present invention, a uniform testing method was used to characterize the optical properties of the samples:

[0042] Solar radiation reflectance test: The test was conducted using a PerkinElmer Lambda 950s ultraviolet-visible-near-infrared spectrophotometer equipped with an integrating sphere attachment, with a test wavelength of 0.3 to 2.5 μm. The average reflectance was calculated according to the standard GB / T 2680-2021.

[0043] Atmospheric window average emissivity test: The test was conducted using a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (ThermoScientific Nicolet iS50 FTIR) equipped with an integrating sphere, with a test band of 2.5–25 μm. The average emissivity within the atmospheric window (8–13 μm) was calculated according to standard GB / T 30127-2013.

[0044] Example 1

[0045] A diopside crystalline glaze with radiative cooling function is composed of the following components in weight fractions: SiO2: 61.00%, Al2O3: 6.46%, MgO: 5.42%, CaO: 13.32%, K2O: 4.93%, Na2O: 0.99%, P2O5: 3.94%, ZnO: 3.94%.

[0046] Based on the above formula, the raw material formula used in this embodiment is calculated as follows: 55.6 parts by weight of quartz, 5.9 parts by weight of alumina, 4.9 parts by weight of magnesium oxide, 14.1 parts by weight of calcium carbonate, 6.6 parts by weight of potassium carbonate, 1.5 parts by weight of sodium carbonate, 7.8 parts by weight of calcium phosphate, and 3.6 parts by weight of zinc oxide, all dried at 180℃ for 4 hours. After being mixed evenly, the mixture is calcined at 900℃ for 2 hours and then ball-milled again to obtain glaze powder. The glaze powder is ball-milled and mixed with 100g of glaze powder, 0.3g of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose, 0.3g of sodium tripolyphosphate, and 72ml of water. After passing through a 200-mesh sieve, a glaze slurry is obtained. The glaze is applied by spraying, dried, and then placed in a box furnace. It is heated to 1150℃ at a heating rate of 10℃ / min, held for 30 minutes, and then cooled with the furnace to obtain a diopside crystalline glaze with radiative cooling function.

[0047] X-ray diffraction analysis was performed on the crystalline glaze obtained in this embodiment, and the results are as follows: Figure 1 As shown. By Figure 1 As can be seen, the phase composition of the crystalline glaze is mainly diopside, with a small amount of quartz. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the crystalline glaze obtained in this example after etching with 5 wt% HF solution for 60 seconds is shown below. Figure 2 As shown. By Figure 2 As can be seen in a, its crystal phase is mainly columnar diopside crystals, with a crystal length of about 5 μm and a diameter ranging from 0.2 to 2 μm. This diameter range falls precisely within the optimal size range for Mie scattering in the solar radiation band (0.3–2.5 μm), enabling it to scatter sunlight extremely effectively. Figure 2 A clear liquid-liquid phase separation is visible in sample b. This is because the P2O5 introduced into the formulation induces the separation of the phosphorus-rich phase and the silicon-rich phase during cooling, forming a nanoscale droplet structure. This nanoscale phase separation, together with the micron-sized diopside crystals, constitutes a nano-micron multi-level dispersion structure, further enhancing the scattering ability of short-wavelength light. Solar reflectance and infrared emissivity spectra are shown below. Figure 3 As shown, from Figure 3 It can be seen that the diopside crystalline glaze of this embodiment has a solar radiation reflectance of 96% in the 0.3-2.5μm band and an emissivity greater than 0.91 in the mid-infrared region in the 8-13μm band.

[0066] Comparative Example 4

[0067] This comparative example uses commercially available white glazed ceramic building tiles as the comparison sample. The sample was purchased from a building materials market and is a common zirconium white glaze product. Its surface is white with no obvious defects, its whiteness is 78.47, and its surface gloss is 22.9.

[0068] The optical performance test data of each embodiment and comparative example are summarized in Table 1.

[0069] Table 1 Optical performance test results

[0070] Group Solar radiation reflectivity (0.3–2.5 μm) Infrared emissivity (8–13 μm) Example 1 96.0% 0.912 Example 2 94.3% 0.908 Example 3 92.0% 0.915 Example 4 93.2% 0.911 Comparative Example 1 89.2% 0.867 Comparative Example 2 87.2% 0.854 Comparative Example 3 88.7% 0.831 Comparative Example 4 78.0% 0.831

[0071] As shown in Table 1, the diopside crystalline glazes prepared in Examples 1-4 exhibit a solar radiation reflectance of over 92% and an infrared emissivity of over 0.90, demonstrating excellent radiative cooling effects. Comparative Example 1, lacking P2O5, could not induce liquid phase separation to lower the nucleation barrier, resulting in a glaze layer dominated by the glass phase and lacking microcrystalline scattering centers. Comparative Example 2, with its excessively high aluminum content, experienced a sharp increase in high-temperature viscosity, severely hindering the diffusion of crystal-forming ions and suppressing the growth kinetics of diopside crystals. Comparative Example 3, with its calcium and magnesium content below the theoretical stoichiometry of diopside, lacked necessary crystal framework components, limiting the total amount of crystallization. All of these factors significantly weakened the Mie scattering effect and infrared emissivity. Compared to commercially available white ceramic tiles (Comparative Example 4, reflectance 78.0%), this invention drastically reduced the solar radiation absorption rate from 22% of ordinary products to 4%, reducing heat radiation input by nearly 80%. Meanwhile, the infrared emissivity of the diopside crystalline glazes prepared in Examples 1 to 4 all reached above 0.90, which is better than the 0.831 of commercially available samples. They can more efficiently utilize the atmospheric transparent window of 8 to 13 μm to emit heat into the cold outer space in the form of thermal radiation, and have significant advantages in radiation cooling.

[0072] This invention relates to a diopside crystalline glaze with radiative cooling function, which can be applied in building ceramics. The glaze is applied to the surface of a ceramic substrate, with the thickness of the glaze layer after firing controlled to be 0.2–1.5 mm. Compared to existing polymer-based radiative cooling coatings, this invention uses an inorganic ceramic material system, exhibiting superior weather resistance and fire resistance. It effectively improves upon the shortcomings of organic coatings, such as aging, peeling, and reflectivity attenuation due to dust accumulation during long-term outdoor service, demonstrating excellent long-term stability. Therefore, this crystalline glaze has broad application prospects in the field of green building envelope structures, significantly reducing building surface temperature and effectively reducing air conditioning energy consumption.
