This experimental paint reflects sunlight, emits heat and mimics sweating to cool buildings without air conditioning, even in the tropics.| Science News
Researchers have created a paint containing living cyanobacteria that produces oxygen and can capture carbon dioxide. The bacteria’s ability to withstand extreme environments means this novel paint could be used in a range of applications, including outer space.| New Atlas
Just like a tennis player might don a white shirt instead of a black one on warm summer's day, researchers see great potential in dressing buildings in reflective white paints to keep them cool. A team of material scientists is reporting a major advance in this area, producing a new kind of super…| New Atlas
It's never a good thing when harmful bacteria are present on surfaces in hospitals, as they can cause life-threatening infections in already immunocompromised patients. A new paint could help keep that from happening, by quickly killing any microbes that land on it.| New Atlas
