Maintaining thermal comfort within the human body is crucial for optimal health and overall
well-being. By merely broadening the set-point of indoor temperatures, we could …

Abstract Perylene-3, 4, 9, 10-tetracarboxylic diimide (PTCDI) is well-known as one the main
source of vat dyes and pigments. PTCDI has a wide range of colors including red …

Gd3+-doped cerium vanadates, Ce1− xGdxVO4 (0≤ x≤ 0.30), were synthesized as near-
infrared (NIR) reflective black pigments by a conventional solid-state reaction method …

A series of near-infrared reflective nano-pigments based on Co 1− x Zn x Cr 2− y Al y O 4 (x=
0–1 and y= 0–2) have been synthesized via Pechini-type sol–gel method. Comprehensive …

Multifunctional coatings offer many advantages towards protecting various surfaces. Here
we apply aggregation induced segregation of perylene diimide (PDI) to control the surface …

Radiative cooling provides a low-energy consumption remedy for the urban heat island
effect. However, most radiative cooling materials use light-colored surfaces to achieve …

Large buildings situated in hot regions of the Globe need to be agreeable to their residents.
Air conditioning is extensively used to make these buildings comfortable, with consequent …

A deep black near-infrared reflectance pigment based on CuCr 2 O 4 doped with Fe and Mn
ions was described. The formula of the pigment was CuCr 2-xy Fe x Mn y O 4. The band gap …

Layered perovskite black Ca2 (Mn, Ti) O4 ceramics were studied by using synchrotron
radiation X-rays (SRX) and density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the …

Inorganic “cool pigments” exhibit excellent application potential in double-carbon strategies
and energy savings. High-entropy RE 6 MoO 12 inorganic “cool pigments” with a disordered …
