Selective Optical Properties of Cement for Enhanced Radiative Cooling and Energy‐Efficient Construction Materials

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Cement phases are good materials for radiative cooling thanks to the selective emissivity in IR ATW. Cement powders have high reflectance of solar radiation which reduces the thermal losses. The onset of the absorption curves is defined by bound excitons. Sulfates have higher radiated powers and reflectance than calcium silicates.

Thermochromic Radiative Cooling Coatings with Robust Superhydrophobicity for Energy‐Efficient Buildings

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
A scalable, color‐adaptive radiative cooling coating is developed to enable dynamic spectral regulation via a reversible thermochromic transition at ~45 °C and a high solar reflectance of 91.7%. The coating achieves 4.44 °C outdoor sub‐ambient cooling while providing robust superhydrophobicity and environmental durability through its micro/nano ...

Recycling Ni‐Rich NCM Cathode Materials From Spent Li‐Ion Batteries as Efficient Electrocatalyst for Urea Oxidation

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Mounting battery waste demands sustainable solutions. We recycle spent NCM cathodes into high‐performance urea oxidation catalysts, enabling sustainable hydrogen production and simultaneous urea waste treatment. The burgeoning electric vehicle industry has intensified the demand for high‐energy Ni‐Co‐Mn (NCM) cathodes, yet their end‐of‐life management ...
