Abstract
Description
- This application is a 371 of international PCT patent application PCT/CN2021/078472 filed on Mar. 1, 2021, which claims all benefits accruing under 35 U.S.C. § 119 from China Patent Application No. 202110154142.3, and titled “RADIATIVE COOLING FILM AND PRODUCT THEREOF”, filed on Feb. 4, 2021, in the China National Intellectual Property Administration, the content of which is hereby incorporated by reference.
- The present disclosure relates to the field of new material and energy saving, and in particular, to a radiative cooling film and a production thereof.
- In the energy saving field, a radiative cooling film can transport heat at a surface of an object to an outer space in a form of infrared ray in a waveband of atmospheric window (i.e. 8 μm-13 μm), so as to reduce the temperature of the object without consuming energy.
FIG. 1 shows a conventional radiative cooling film, including afirst substrate layer 11 as a substrate, a firstreflective layer 12 and a firstemissive coating layer 13. The firstemissive coating layer 13 is made of a fluorine-containing resin, and a plurality of firstradiative cooling particles 14 is further dispersed in the firstemissive coating layer 13. In the radiative cooling film, the firstradiative cooling particles 14 are added in the firstemissive coating layer 13. In one aspect, the firstradiative cooling particle 14 can reduce the mechanical property of the radiative cooling film. In another aspect, the firstradiative cooling particle 14 can damage the orderliness of molecular chains of the fluorine-containing resin, so that permeability of water and oxygen of the radiative cooling film may be increased, thereby reducing the weather resistance of the radiative cooling film. - In
FIG. 2 , in order to solve defects of the radiative cooling particles added in the fluorine-containing film, another conventional radiative cooling film includes asecond substrate layer 21, a secondreflective layer 22, a secondemissive layer 23 and a fluorine-containingfilm 24 stacked in that order. The secondemissive layer 23 can include a colloid and a plurality of secondradiative cooling particles 25 disposed in the colloid. In the radiative cooling film, the secondradiative cooling particles 25 are added in the colloid instead of in the fluorine-containingfilm 24, that is, the secondemissive layer 23 can be an adhesive layer consisted of the colloid and the second radiative cooling particles. The fluorine-containingfilm 24 can be configured for improving the weather resistance of the radiative cooling film. However, adding the secondradiative cooling particles 25 into the colloid can also lead to an increase of the permeability of water and oxygen of the colloid, resulting in the weather resistance of the radiative cooling film being reduced. Moreover, the adhesive property of the colloid may be reduced by adding the secondradiative cooling particles 25 into the colloid, and further reducing integrality performance of the radiative cooling film. At the same time, the internal structure of the colloid may be damaged, resulting in reduction of the cohesion of the colloid and mechanical property of the radiative cooling film. - In order to solve the above problems, it is necessary to provide a radiative cooling film having excellent cooling effect, weather resistance and mechanical property, and a product thereof.
- A radiative cooling film, including a carrier layer, a reflective layer and an emissive layer, wherein the carrier layer, the reflective layer and the emissive layer are stacked up.

After being disposed at 120 degrees centigrade for 30 minutes, a transverse direction heat-shrinkage rate of the carrier layer is less than or equal to 2%, and a machine direction heat-shrinkage rate of the carrier layer is less than or equal to 3%. A thickness of the radiative cooling film is in a range of 50 μm to 170 μm, and a thickness of the emissive layer accounts for 20% to 90% of the thickness of the radiative cooling film.
- In some embodiments, when the reflective layer is disposed between the carrier layer and the emissive layer, the thickness of the radiative cooling film is in a range of 55 μm to 170 μm.
- In some embodiments, a ratio of the thickness of the emissive layer to the thickness of the carrier layer is in a range of 1:2 to 8:1.
- In some embodiments, the thickness of the emissive layer in in a range of 25 μm to 120 μm.
- In some embodiments, when the carrier layer is disposed between the reflective layer and the emissive layer, the thickness of the radiative cooling film is in a range of 50 μm to 125 μm.
- In some embodiments, the ratio of the thickness of the emissive layer to the thickness of the carrier layer is in a range of 3:10 to 22:3.
- In some embodiments, the thickness of the emissive layer is in a range of 15 μm to 110 μm.
- In some embodiments, the emissive layer includes fluorine-containing resin. In some embodiments, the carrier layer includes at least one of polyester, polyurethane, polyamide and polycarbonate. In some embodiments, the reflective layer includes at least one of metal and alloy.
- In some embodiments, a surface energy of a surface of the carrier layer contacted with the reflective layer is larger than or equal to 40 mN/m.
- In some embodiments, a polymer coating layer is disposed between the carrier layer and the reflective layer. A surface energy of the polymer coating layer is larger than or equal to 40 mN/m, and a thickness of the polymer coating layer is in a range of 3 nm to 200 nm.
- In some embodiments, an absolute value of a difference between a refractivity of the carrier layer and a refractivity of the polymer coating layer is larger than or equal to 0.05.
- In some embodiments, a light-incident surface of the emissive layer is provided with an embossing structure.
- A product including the radiative cooling film. The product includes a substrate and the radiative cooling film disposed on the substrate via an adhesive layer. The adhesive layer is away from the emissive layer of the radiative cooling film.
- In some embodiments, the substrate includes at least one of metal substrate, ceramic substrate, semi-conductor substrate, plastic substrate, glass substrate, rubber substrate, asphalt substrate, cement substrate and fabric substrate.
- In some embodiments, the product is a waterproof radiative cooling roll material, the substrate is selected from a petroleum asphalt paper-based felt, a petroleum asphalt fiberglass-based roll material, an aluminum-surface roll material, a waterproof SBS modified asphalt roll material, a waterproof APP modified asphalt roll material, an ethylene-propylene-diene monomer roll material, a polyvinyl chloride roll material, a chlorinated polyethylene roll material, a mixed rubber roll material, and a waterproof TPO roll material.

- C—F bond has very strong absorptivity in a waveband of atmospheric window in a range of 8 μm to 13 μm, and has a very strong absorption peak in a waveband in a range of 8 μm-10 μm. Similarly, C—C bond and C—O bond further have relatively strong absorptivity in a waveband of atmospheric window in a range of 8 μm to 13 μm, and especially have a very strong absorption peak in a waveband in a range of 8 μm-9.5 μm. Therefore, a polymer containing a C—F bond has excellent spectral selectivity, and a polymer containing at least one of C—C bond and C—O bond has relatively good spectral selectivity. At the same time, due to large electronegativity of fluorine atom, the C—F bond has high bond energy as high as 500 kJ/mol. However, in the waveband of sunlight, light with a wavelength in a range of 280 nm to 780 nm can damage an organic matter, but energy of the light cannot damage the C—F bond. Moreover, due to relatively low polarizability of the fluorine atom, the polymer containing C—F bond can have high thermal stability and chemical inertness, so that the polymer containing C—F bond can have excellent weather resistance.
- Therefore, in the radiative cooling film of the present disclosure, the emissive layer is made of the polymer containing C—F bond, and the carrier layer is made of polymer containing at least one of C—C bond and C—O bond, and such two kinds of polymers can work together. At the same time, the emissive layer is defined as a light-incident side of the radiative cooling film. By controlling the thickness of the radiative cooling film, a number of C—F bonds, C—C bonds and/or C—O bonds in unit area of the radiative cooling film can be optimized, and the heat absorption of light having a wavelength in the range of sunlight can be controlled. Therefore, the radiative cooling film can have an excellent atmospheric window emissivity without adding radiative cooling particles, so as to avoid adverse effects on mechanical properties and weather resistance of the radiative cooling film caused by adding the radiative cooling particles, so that the radiative cooling film can have excellent mechanical properties and weather resistance.

-
FIG. 3 shows a radiative cooling film in the first execution mode of the present disclosure. The radiative cooling film can include acarrier layer 31, areflective layer 32 and anemissive layer 33 stacked together. - In some embodiments, a material of the
emissive layer 33 can include a polymer containing C—F bond. The C—F bond can have very strong absorptivity in a waveband of atmospheric window in a range of 8 μm to 13 μm, and a very strong absorption peak in a waveband in a range of 8 μm to 13 μm. Therefore, the polymer containing C—F bond can have excellent spectral selectivity. When the polymer containing C—F bond is made into theemissive layer 33, theemissive layer 33 can have excellent atmospheric window emissivity. At the same time, due to large electronegativity of fluorine atom, the C—F bond can have high bond energy as high as 500 kJ/mol. However, for light having a wavelength in the waveband of sunlight, light damaging an organic matter can have a wavelength in a range of 280 nm to 780 nm, but energy of the light cannot damage the C—F bond. Moreover, due to relatively low polarizability of the fluorine atom, the polymer containing the C—F bond can have high thermal stability and chemical inertness, so that the polymer containing C—F bond can have excellent weather resistance. When theemissive layer 33 is made of the polymer containing the C—F bond, theemissive layer 33 can have excellent weather resistance. - The
carrier layer 31 can include a polymer containing at least one of C—C bond and C—O bond. The C—C bond and the C—O bond can further have relatively strong absorptivity in a waveband of atmospheric window in a range of 8 μm to 13 μm, and especially can have a very strong absorption peak in a waveband in a range of 8 μm-9.5 μm. Therefore, the polymer containing at least one of C—C bond and C—O bond can further have a relatively good spectral selectivity. When thecarrier layer 31 is made of the polymer containing at least one of C—C bond and C—O bond, the atmospheric window emissivity of the radiative cooling film can be improved. - In the radiative cooling film, the emissivity can conform to a following formula:
-
y=a−be{circumflex over ( )}(−x/k). - In the formula, y can represent the emissivity; a, b and k can represent constants defined by the material; x can represent a thickness of the radiative cooling film, and e can represent a nature exponential. It can be concluded from the formula that along with the increase of the thickness of the
emissive layer 33 and thecarrier layer 31, the number of C—F bonds, C—C bonds and/or C—O bonds in unit area of the radiative cooling film can increase, and the atmospheric window emissivity of the radiative cooling film can increase. However, increase of the thickness not only can increase a cost of the radiative cooling film, but also can increase heat absorption of theemissive layer 33 and thecarrier layer 31 to light in the waveband of the sunlight. When the thickness of the radiative cooling film reaches a limitation, cooling effect of the radiative cooling film may decrease along with the increase of the thickness. - Therefore, in the present disclosure, the radiative cooling film can have a thickness in a range of 50 μm to 170 μm. A thickness of the radiative cooling film is in a range of 50 μm to 170 μm, and a ratio of a thickness of the emissive layer to the thickness of the radiative cooling film is in a range of 20:100 to 90:100. Therefore, by controlling the thickness of the emissive layer and the carrier layer, the number of C—F bonds, C—C bonds and/or C—O bonds in unit area of the radiative cooling film can be optimized. Meanwhile, the heat-absorption of the light having the wavelength in the waveband of the sunlight can be controlled, and a heat absorptivity of the
emissive layer 33 and thecarrier layer 31 can be less than or equal to 20%. Therefore, the radiative cooling film can have an excellent atmospheric window emissivity without adding radiative cooling particles, so as to avoid adverse effects on mechanical properties and weather resistance of the radiative cooling film caused by adding the radiative cooling particles, so that the reflective radiative cooling film can have excellent mechanical properties and weather resistance. - In the first execution mode, the
reflective layer 32 can be disposed between thecarrier layer 31 and theemissive layer 33. When the radiative cooling film is disposed on a substrate, theemissive layer 33 can be the light-incident side of the radiative cooling film, so that the radiative cooling film can have excellent weather resistance. - At this time, when the sunlight reaches the radiative cooling film, the
reflective layer 32 can reflect most of the sunlight into the atmosphere, so that the light in the waveband of the sunlight can be blocked and little of the light can enter the substrate. Then, heat inside the substrate can be transformed into infrared ray having a wavelength in a range of 8 μm to 13 μm by theemissive layer 33, and radiated through the atmospheric window in a range of 8 μm to 13 μm. Since the infrared ray in waveband of atmospheric window (8 μm to 13 μm) is little absorbed by the atmosphere, the infrared ray can directly enter the outer space, so as to play a role of radiative cooling, thereby cooling the substrate. - In the first execution mode, since the
carrier layer 31 is separated from theemissive layer 33 by thereflective layer 32, thecarrier 31 can protect thereflective layer 32, but the effect of thecarrier layer 31 for improving the emissivity of the radiative cooling film can be reduced. Therefore, in some embodiments, the thickness of the radiative cooling film can be in a range of 55 μm to 170 μm. In consideration of heat-shrinkage of the radiative cooling film, a ratio of the thickness of theemissive layer 33 to a thickness of thecarrier layer 31 can be in a range of 1:2 to 8:1; and in some embodiments, can be in a range of 1:1 to 3.75:1. The ratio of the thickness of theemissive layer 33 to the thickness of thereflective layer 32 can be in a range of 50:1 to 12000:1; and in some embodiments, can be in a range of 80:1 to 4000:1. The thickness of theemissive layer 33 can be in a range of 25 μm to 120 μm; and in some embodiments, can be in a range of 40 μm to 75 μm. Therefore, by controlling the thickness of the emissive layer and the carrier layer, the number of C—F bonds, C—C bonds and/or C—O bonds in unit area of the radiative cooling film can be optimized. Meanwhile, heat absorption of the radiative cooling film to the light in waveband of the sunlight can be controlled, so that the heat absorptivity of theemissive layer 33 and thecarrier layer 31 can further be less than or equal to 15%; and, in some embodiments, can be less than or equal to 10%. - In the radiative cooling film of the first execution mode, the
reflective layer 32 can include at least one of metal and alloy. In some embodiments, thereflective layer 32 can include at least one of silver, silver alloy, aluminum, aluminum alloy, titanium, and titanium alloy. In some embodiments, thereflective layer 32 can include a plurality of reflective sub-layers, so as to reduce the internal stress of thereflective layer 32. In some embodiments, thereflective layer 32 can include stacked-up silver reflective layer and aluminum reflective layer; in other embodiments, the further include stacked-up titanium reflective layers. At the same time, when materials of the sub reflective layers are different, the plurality of reflective sub-layers can coordinate with each other, so as to make up the technology defects and effect defects of the independent reflective sub-layers, so that the reflectivity of thereflective layer 32 in the full waveband of the sunlight can be improved, thereby improving the reflectivity of the radiative cooling film. Meanwhile, damage of ultraviolet light to the radiative cooling film can be reduces, so that a service life of the radiative cooling film can be prolonged. Therefore, in this execution mode, by optimizing the material, the structure and the thickness of the carrier layer and the emissive layer, an emissivity of the radiative cooling film in the atmospheric window waveband can reach up to 85%; in some embodiments, the emissivity can further reach up to 90%; in other embodiments, the emissivity can further reach up to 95%. The reflectivity of the radiative cooling film to the full waveband of the sunlight can reach up to 82%; in some embodiment, the reflectivity can further reach up to 87%; and in other embodiments, the reflectivity can further reach up to 92%. The radiative cooling film can have excellent cooling effect. - In consideration of mechanical properties (such as tensile strength, etc.) of the radiative cooling film, the polymer containing at least one of C—C bond and C—O bond can be selected from at least one of polyester, polyurethane, polyamide and polycarbonate in some embodiments. In some embodiments, the polyester can include at least one of polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) and poly(ethylene terephthalate-1,4-cyclohexadiene dimethylene terephthalate) (PETG).
- Due to high surface energy of the
reflective layer 32 made of metal and alloy, thereflective layer 32 can be directly adhered to a surface of thecarrier layer 31. Alternatively, thereflective layer 32 can be deposited on the surface of thecarrier layer 31 by methods of sputtering, vapor deposition, and the like. - In order to ensure the smoothness of the reflective layer and the cooling effect and service life of the radiative cooling film, after being disposed at 120 degrees centigrade for 30 minutes, a transverse direction (TD) heat-shrinkage rate of the
carrier layer 31 can be less than or equal to 2%, and a machine direction (MD) heat-shrinkage rate of the carrier layer can be less than or equal to 3%. - A fluorine-containing resin can include C—F bond, and can be easy to obtain. In some embodiments, the
emissive layer 33 can be the fluorine-containing resin, which can be at least one selected from ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer (ETFE), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), polyvinyl formal (PVF), polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE), fluoroolefin-vinyl ether copolymer (FEVE), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), ethylene chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer (ECTFE), fluoroethylene propylene copolymer (FEP) and fusible polytetrafluoroethylene (PFA). In some embodiments, the fluorine-containing resin can include at least one of ethylene-tetrafluoroethylene copolymer (ETFE), polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), polyvinyl formal (PVF), fluoroolefin-vinyl ether copolymer (FEVE), polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and fluoroethylene propylene copolymer (FEP). - The fluorine-containing resin can have a relatively low surface energy. Thus, the
emissive layer 33 can be directly made by coating a painting of fluorine-containing resin on a surface of thereflective layer 32. The painting of the fluorine-containing resin can be water-based or oil-based. -
FIG. 4 is a schematic diagram of one radiative cooling film in the second execution mode of the present disclosure, wherein theemissive layer 33 is a fluorine-containing film. In the radiative cooling film, the fluorine-containing resin film can be adhered to thereflective layer 32 via anadhesive layer 34. Theadhesive layer 34 can include at least one of the polyurethane glue and acrylic acid glue having great weather resistance. A thickness of theadhesive layer 34 can be in a range of 0.5 μm to 20 μm. - Moreover, the material of the
carrier layer 31 can be selected from polyester, polyurethane, polyamide and polycarbonate, and a surface energy of them are low. Before depositing or pasting thereflective layer 32, the surface of thecarrier layer 31 can be treated by plasma method, corona method, and the like, so that the surface energy of thecarrier layer 31 can be larger than 40 mN/m. In some embodiments, the surface energy of thecarrier layer 31 can be improved to larger than 42 mN/m; in other embodiments, the surface energy of thecarrier layer 31 can be improved to larger than 45 mN/m; in other embodiments, the surface energy of thecarrier layer 31 can be improved to larger than 50 mN/m; and in other embodiments, the surface energy of thecarrier layer 31 can be improved to larger than 55 mN/m. Alternatively, apolymer coating layer 35 can be disposed on thecarrier layer 31, a surface energy of thepolymer coating layer 35 can be larger than 40 mN/m. In some embodiments, the surface energy of thepolymer coating layer 35 can be than 42 mN/m; in other embodiments, the surface energy of thepolymer coating layer 35 can be larger than 45 mN/m; in other embodiments, the surface energy of thepolymer coating layer 35 can be larger than 50 mN/m; and in other embodiments, the surface energy of the polymer coating layer can be larger than 55 mN/m. Therefore, an adhesive force of thecarrier layer 31 and thereflective layer 32 can be largely improved, so that the peel strength of the entire radiative cooling film can be improved. - When the radiative cooling film is provided with the
polymer coating layer 35, a thickness of the polymer coating layer can be in a range of 3 nm to 200 nm. An absolute value of a difference between a refractivity of thecarrier layer 31 and a refractivity of thepolymer coating layer 35 can be larger than or equal to 0.05, so as to facilitate improving the reflectivity of the radiative cooling film. - In some embodiments, a material of the
polymer coating layer 35 can include at least one of epoxy acrylic polymer, polyurethane acrylate and polyester acrylate. - Referring to
FIG. 4 , in a radiative cooling film of the present disclosure, the light-incident surface of theemissive layer 33 can be provided withembossing structures 36. The embossing structure can include at least one of square-shaped structure, circle-shaped structure, rhombus-shaped structure and twill-shaped structure. The embossing structure can have a depth in a range of 0.5 μm to 2.5 μm. A gloss unit of the radiative cooling film can be reduced by theembossing structure 36, so as to reduce light of specular reflection, so that light pollution caused by the radiative cooling film of the present disclosure can be reduced. Therefore, the radiative cooling film can be used in situations having special requirements to light pollutions, such as airport and the like. -
FIG. 5 is a radiative cooling film in the third execution mode of the present disclosure. In the present execution mode, thecarrier layer 31 can be disposed between thereflective layer 32 and theemissive layer 33. At this time, when the sunlight reaches the radiative cooling film, thereflective layer 32 can reflect most of the sunlight into the atmosphere, so that the light in the waveband of the sunlight can be blocked and little of the light can enter the substrate. Then, heat inside the substrate can be transformed into infrared ray having a wavelength in a range of 8 μm to 13 μm by theemissive layer 33, and radiated through the atmospheric window in a range of 8 μm to 13 μm. Since the infrared ray in waveband of atmospheric window (8 μm to 13 μm) is little absorbed by the atmosphere, the infrared ray can directly enter the cold source of outer space, so as to play a role of radiative cooling, thereby cooling the substrate. - In the present execution mode, the
carrier layer 31 can be disposed between theemissive layer 33 and thereflective layer 32, so that thecarrier layer 31 can better facilitate radiation of theemissive layer 33. Therefore, in some embodiments, the thickness of the radiative cooling film can further be in a range of 50 μm to 125 μm. At the same time, in consideration of heat-shrinkage of the radiative cooling film, the ratio of the thickness of theemissive layer 33 to a thickness of thecarrier layer 31 can be in a range of 3:10 to 22:3; and in some embodiments, can be in a range of 1:5 to 20:3. The ratio of the thickness of theemissive layer 33 to the thickness of thereflective layer 32 can be in a range of 30:1 to 110000:1; and in some embodiments, can be in a range of 25:1 to 100000:1. The thickness of theemissive layer 33 can be in a range of 15 μm to 110 μm; and in some embodiments, can be in a range of 40 μm to 75 μm. Therefore, by controlling the thickness of theemissive layer 33 and thecarrier layer 31, the number of C—F bonds, C—C bonds and/or C—O bonds in unit area of the radiative cooling film can be optimized. Meanwhile, heat absorption of the radiative cooling film to the light in waveband of the sunlight can be controlled, so that the heat absorptivity of theemissive layer 33 and thecarrier layer 31 can further be less than or equal to 15%; and, in some embodiments, can be less than or equal to 10%. - Therefore, in this execution mode, by optimizing the material, the structure and the thickness of the carrier layer and the emissive layer, the emissivity of the radiative cooling film in the atmospheric window waveband can reach 87%; in some embodiments, the emissivity can further reach up to 92%; in other embodiments, the emissivity can further reach up to 97%. The reflectivity of the radiative cooling film to the full waveband of the sunlight can reach up to 80%; in some embodiment, the reflectivity can further reach up to 85%; and in other embodiments, the reflectivity can further reach up to 90%. The radiative cooling film can have excellent cooling effect.
- It should be understood that in the present execution mode, the
reflective layer 32 can be directly adhered to the surface of thecarrier layer 31; alternatively, thereflective layer 32 can be deposited on the surface of thecarrier layer 31 by methods of sputtering, vapor deposition, and the like. Before depositing or pasting thereflective layer 32, the surface of thecarrier layer 31 can be treated by plasma method, corona method, and the like; alternatively, thepolymer coating layer 35 can be disposed on thecarrier layer 31. Therefore, the adhesive force of thecarrier layer 31 and thereflective layer 32 can be largely improved, so that the peel strength of the entire radiative cooling film can be improved. - Furthermore, the
emissive layer 33 can be directly made by coating a painting of fluorine-containing resin on a surface of thereflective layer 32. The painting of the fluorine-containing resin can be water-based or oil-based. Alternately, when theemissive layer 33 is the fluorine-containing film, the fluorine-containing film can be adhered to thecarrier layer 31 via theadhesive layer 34. - Therefore, by optimizing the material, the structure and the thicknesses of the radiative cooling film, the radiative cooling film can have an excellent atmospheric window emissivity without adding radiative cooling particles, so as to avoid adverse effects on mechanical properties and weather resistance of the radiative cooling film caused by adding the radiative cooling particles, so that the radiative cooling film can have more excellent mechanical properties and weather resistance, and excellent cooling effect.
- The present disclosure further provide a use of the radiative cooling film, wherein the radiative cooling film can be disposed on a surface of a substrate and be configured for reflecting the sunlight and emitting the heat in a form of infrared ray through the atmospheric window.
- In some embodiments, the substrate can include at least one of metal substrate, ceramic substrate, semi-conductor substrate, plastic substrate, glass substrate, rubber substrate, asphalt substrate, cement substrate and fabric substrate.
- The present disclosure further provide a product including the radiative cooling film, which includes the substrate and the radiative cooling film disposed on the substrate. A surface of the radiative cooling film away from the
emissive layer 33 can be connected to the substrate via an adhesive layer, and the surface away from theemissive layer 33 can be the light-incident side. - In some embodiments, the adhesive layer can include at least one of acrylic adhesive, polyurethane pressure sensitive adhesive, hot melt adhesive, hot melt adhesive film and butyl adhesive. The thickness of the adhesive layer can be in a range of 20 μm to 1500 μm. Furthermore, the thickness of the adhesive layer can be in a range of 25 μm to 150 μm. If the adhesive layer is too thick, the absorptivity of the adhesive layer to the sunlight will increase, so that the cooling effect of the radiative cooling film can be affected. If the adhesive layer is too thin, the adhesive property of the adhesive layer will decrease, so that the service life of the radiative cooling film will be affected.
- In some embodiments, the substrate can include at least one of metal substrate, ceramic substrate, semi-conductor substrate, plastic substrate, glass substrate, rubber substrate, asphalt substrate, cement substrate and fabric substrate.
- In some embodiments, the product can be a waterproof radiative cooling roll material. The substrate can be selected from a petroleum asphalt paper-based felt, a petroleum asphalt fiberglass-based roll material, an aluminum-surface roll material, a waterproof SBS modified asphalt roll material, a waterproof APP modified asphalt roll material, an ethylene-propylene-diene monomer roll material, a polyvinyl chloride roll material, a chlorinated polyethylene roll material, a mixed rubber roll material, and a waterproof TPO roll material.
- In some embodiments, the product can be a radiative cooling metal plate, wherein the substrate can be selected from an aluminum alloy plate, a galvanized metal plate, a tinned metal plate, a clad steel plate and a colored steel plate.
- Therefore, the radiative cooling film of the present disclosure can be used as an outer surface of a building envelope, such as grain depots, large public buildings (such as high-speed rail stations, airports, exhibition halls, museums), petrochemical storage tanks, power cabinets, communication cabinets and the like. The radiative cooling film can reflect the sunlight and emit the heat in a form of infrared ray through the atmospheric window, so that the building envelope can reduce temperature without energy consumption.
