Highly solar reflectance and infrared transparent porous coating for non-contact heat dissipations
Meijie Chen, Dan Pang, Hongjie Yan
Abstract
, the IR-transparent coating obtained a 4°C lower heater temperature than the normal PDRC coating under the same condition. In addition, the spectral reflectance of the P-PE coating after immersing in air or water changed little, which showed excellent durability for long-term outdoor applications. These results indicate the P-PE coating can be a potential IR-transparent coating for non-contact heat dissipations under direct sunlight.
