Polymer‐Based Passive Radiative Cooling A Structural Design Perspective
EcoMat, Volume 8, Issue 7, July 2026.This work categorizes structure‐oriented design strategies for polymer‐based passive radiative cooling into fibrous, porous, photonic/meta, and hybrid composite architectures. Each structural motif is shown to regulate solar scattering, infrared emissivity, and heat transport through distinct geometry‐driven mechanisms, offering a systematic pathway to

SPE Polymers, Volume 7, Issue 3, July 2026.Symmetrical Jute/JUCO/Glass hybrid epoxy composites were reinforced with TiO2 and CuO microparticles. Incorporating 3 wt.% CuO increased tensile strength by up to 63.7%, while 3 wt.% TiO2 maximized flexural and impact properties alongside superior moisture resistance, demonstrating that these fillers significantly enhance natural fiber biocomposites ...
