Impact of Incorporating NIR Reflective Pigments in Finishing Coatings of ETICS
Infrastructures, 2021 Near-infrared (NIR) reflective materials are being developed for mitigating building cooling needs. Their use contributes to broadening the range of colours, responding to the urban aesthetic demand without compromising the building performance.

Journal of the Society of Materials Science, Japan, 2009 It is considered that the heat island phenomenon is generated by temperature rise due to heat release from urban structures which have a high heat absorptance and are warmed by solar radiation during the daytime. Applying solar heat high reflectance paint to the exterior surfaces of urban structures would suppress the increase in temperature, and make ...

The solar reflectance of a snow field [PDF]
Cold Regions Science and Technology, 1979 The radiative transfer equation was solved using a modified Schuster-Schwartzschild approximation to obtain an expression for the solar reflectance of a snow field. The parameters in the reflectance formula are the single scattering albedo and the fraction of energy scattered in the backward direction.
