Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of energy-saving coating technology, specifically relating to a high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating and coating preparation method and coating structure. Background Technology

[0002] With accelerating climate change and global warming, humanity faces ever-increasing demands for electricity for cooling. Energy consumption and greenhouse gas emissions from cooling have reached unprecedented levels. Radiative cooling technology, as a novel passive zero-energy cooling technology, has enormous application potential. It achieves a cooling effect below ambient temperature by strongly reflecting or scattering energy in the solar radiation band (0.25–2.5 μm) and utilizing the "atmospheric window" (8–13 μm) to exchange heat with the universe at temperatures close to 3 K.

[0003] To improve the cooling effect of radiation-cooling coatings, it is usually necessary to balance the requirements of broad-spectrum reflection and high emission. However, the functional fillers commonly used in radiation-cooling coatings currently have limitations in spectral matching. At the same time, the fillers used are often limited to a single particle size, and the particle size distribution of the fillers is narrow, resulting in a narrow solar spectrum that can be scattered. This cannot effectively match the broad-spectrum scattering effect of Mie scattering theory, thus limiting the matching with different spectral bands.

[0004] Chinese invention patent CN119529612A relates to the field of polymer materials technology and provides a radiation-cooling coating and its preparation method. The coating comprises the following components by weight: 5-20 parts heat-reflective filler, 5-20 parts heat-radiative filler, 5-20 parts ordinary filler, 0.1-0.5 parts thickener, 10-25 parts aerogel paste, 0.25-0.75 parts hydrophobic agent, 0.2-0.5 parts defoamer, 0.3-1.5 parts dispersant, 0.1-0.3 parts pH adjuster, 0.3-1 parts bactericide, preservative, and mildew inhibitor, 0.1-0.5 parts wetting agent, 25-40 parts acrylic emulsion, 1-2 parts antifreeze, 2-4 parts film-forming aid, and 15-30 parts water. This invention provides a functional coating that combines high reflectivity and radiation-cooling properties, exhibiting significant reflective heat insulation / radiation-cooling effects. It is non-toxic, odorless, pollution-free, and easy to apply, making it an ideal decorative material. However, the thermal radiation filler used in this invention is alumina-modified PVDF-HFP, which is expensive. Furthermore, the extensive use of titanium dioxide as a reflective filler leads to ultraviolet absorption in the ultraviolet band, thus limiting the sunlight reflection effect. In addition, the single particle size and poor spectral compatibility of the functional filler used in this invention result in insufficient sunlight reflection in the near-infrared band.

[0005] Chinese invention patent CN109161241A belongs to the field of radiation cooling technology, and specifically relates to a radiation cooling coating with self-cleaning function and its preparation method. The radiation cooling coating includes a base adhesive and a radiator and hydrophobic nanoparticles covering the base adhesive. The infrared emission peak of the radiator is located in the infrared radiation band of 8–13 μm and covers at least one band within this range. This invention utilizes the high hydrophobicity of the nanoparticles to give the radiation cooling coating a self-cleaning effect, avoiding the phenomenon of reduced cooling effect due to dust accumulation. The radiation cooling coating of this invention has high emissivity in the 8–13 μm band and high transmittance in the visible light band, exhibiting good light-gathering performance, and also reduces the absorption of energy in other bands, ensuring the cooling effect. This invention further employs two radiators with different particle sizes to broaden the radiation range, maximizing the radiation of ground heat to outer space and improving the cooling effect. However, this invention only considers the characteristics of the infrared band and lacks optimization for the solar radiation band. Summary of the Invention

This coating balances the requirements of broad-spectrum reflection and high emission, exhibiting high reflectivity in the ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared light bands—that is, the entire solar emission energy spectrum—and high emissivity in the atmospheric window wavelength range (8μm-13μm).

[0007] The present invention provides a high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating and coating comprising deionized water, functional additives, inorganic functional reflective fillers, thermal radiation fillers and film-forming emulsion, wherein the functional additives include dispersants, wetting agents, defoamers, film-forming aids, pH adjusters, antifreeze agents, preservatives, leveling agents and thickeners.

[0017] The solid content of 20-50wt% means that 20 to 50 grams of solid matter are present in every 100 grams of mixture, with the remainder being liquid or solvent. This range of solid content values ​​is common in industries such as coatings and adhesives, and is mainly used to control the viscosity and drying performance of products.

[0018] To address the aforementioned problems in the prior art, this invention provides a method for preparing a high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating and coating, used in the preparation of the high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating and coating described in any of the preferred embodiments above, comprising the following steps: S1: Weigh out deionized water and a portion of functional additives by weight and disperse them by stirring to form the first mixed solution; S2: The inorganic functional reflective filler is sieved through a screen; S3: Add the inorganic functional reflective filler to the first mixed solution according to the weight parts, stir and disperse evenly to form a second mixed solution; S4: Simultaneously add the thermal radiation filler and film-forming emulsion to the second mixed solution and stir to disperse evenly to form a third mixed solution; S5: After adding the remaining functional additives to the third mixed solution, a high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating is obtained; S6: The high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating is applied to a substrate, and the substrate is cured to obtain a high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating.

[0021] Furthermore, in step S2, the screen mesh size is 300.

[0022] Furthermore, in step S3, the inorganic functional reflective filler is added in batches and dispersed by stirring. This batch addition and dispersion method specifically includes the following steps: S31: Add 50% by weight, adjust the stirring and dispersing speed from 500 r / min to 700 r / min, and stir and disperse for 5-10 min; S32: Add at 25% by weight, adjust the stirring and dispersing speed from 700 r / min to 900 r / min, and stir and disperse for 5-10 min; S33: Add at 25% by weight, adjust the stirring and dispersing speed from 900 r / min to 1200 r / min, and stir and disperse for 20-30 min.

[0024] Furthermore, the coating method in step S6 is any one of roller coating, brush coating, and spray coating, the substrate is the working surface, and the curing is air drying.

[0025] Furthermore, the high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating obtained in step S5 is VOC-free.

[0026] To address the aforementioned problems in the prior art, the present invention also provides a high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating structure, comprising the high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating material and coating described in any of the above-preferred options, wherein the coating structure is a single-layer structure.

[0027] Furthermore, the thickness of the single-layer structure is 200-400 μm.

[0028] Furthermore, the coating has a solar reflectance ≥0.94 and an emissivity ≥0.92 in the 8-13μm atmospheric window band.

[0029] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: Based on Mie scattering theory, the high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating of this invention uses special photonic crystal particles with a wide particle size distribution as reflective and emitting fillers, taking into account both broad-spectrum reflection and high emission requirements, and improving the spectral matching limitations of traditional functional fillers. This invention utilizes the response capability of special photonic crystal particles with a wide particle size distribution to different wavelengths to improve the coating's adaptability to different spectral bands, broaden the radiation range of solar and atmospheric window bands, and achieve selective reflection and selective emission of spectral energy.

[0030] The high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating of this invention has a reflectance ≥0.94 across the entire solar spectrum (250-2500nm), effectively reflecting sunlight to reduce heat absorption and thus improving the cooling effect of the high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating. Furthermore, its emissivity ≥0.92 in the atmospheric window band of 8-13μm allows heat from the ground to be radiated into outer space through this band, facilitating radiative heat exchange with space and further enhancing the cooling effect of the high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating.

[0031] The high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating of this invention exhibits a reflectivity attenuation of no more than 5% after more than 1000 hours in an outdoor environment. This is suitable for outdoor sunlight intensity of 850-990 W / m². 2 During outdoor performance testing, sunlight shone on the surface of the coated group, and the temperature of the coating surface and the inside of the model were continuously recorded and measured simultaneously by a data acquisition device. At noon, the temperature difference between the outer surface of the coated group and the outer surface of the uncoated group reached more than 20°C, and the internal temperature of the coated group was 4-7°C lower than that of the ambient air. It can be seen that the cooling effect of the high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating and coating of the present invention is obvious.

[0032] The high-reflectivity passive radiation cooling coating of this invention is green and environmentally friendly with no VOC release. The fillers used are inexpensive, the preparation process is simple and easy to operate, and the service life is long. It can be prepared without modifying the original coating manufacturing equipment. The construction effect is fast and the coating has good smoothness. It has the potential for large-scale production and can be conveniently and quickly used for construction and modification of existing building envelopes, outdoor power equipment and cold chain transportation equipment. It has great social and economic benefits, a very broad market prospect, and commercial promotion and use value. Attached Figure Description
