Tech Paint
The future of paints is heating up or, rather, cooling down.
In fall 2023, researchers at Stanford University announced they had developed an exterior paint that reflects infrared heat, which can reduce heating and cooling costs by 20% to 25%.
Just a month later, researchers at China’s Harbin Institute of Technology announced a low-cost coating that’s even more effective at increasing building energy efficiency. Inspired by chameleons, it changes color to regulate heat.
And finally, just five days after that, scientists at the University of Surrey in the United Kingdom published their findings on a “living paint,” in which bacteria traps carbon dioxide and produces oxygen.
