A Scalable, Durable, Fire‐Safe All‐Day Passive Radiative Cooling Coating for Sustainable Buildings

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 10, 2 February 2026.
This study reports a scalable, durable coating that combines a fire‑retardant copolymer adhesive, hollow glass microspheres, and boron oxide to achieve passive radiative cooling with over 94% solar reflectance and >95% mid‑infrared emissivity. The coating maintains performance after UV and rain exposure and exhibits UL‑94 V‑0 fire resistance, enabling ...

Application of Deep Neural Networks for Leakage Airflow Rate Estimation From Three‐Dimensional Thermal Patterns

open access: yesIndoor Air, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The employment of deep convolutional neural networks (CNNs) signifies a substantial progression in the domain of image analysis. The application of this method is particularly suitable when the image set represents a spatial structure and predictive analysis can only be performed using Gaussian processes, which are computationally complex.
