Self-Cooling Paint
Self-Cooling Paint with Engineered Metaparticles
PARC’s Passive Radiative Cooling (PRC) technology uses engineered materials that combine high solar reflectance with radiation to space through the atmospheric infrared transparency window to reduce surface temperatures up to 8 °C (14.5 °F) below ambient air temperature even in direct sunlight. The completely passive solution is applied easily through spraying, rolling, or other coating methods to any flat or curved surface. It can achieve 110 W/m2 of cooling with no energy consumption.

Our work is centered around a series of Focus Areas that we believe are the future of science and technology.
We’re continually developing new technologies, many of which are available for Commercialization.
PARC scientists and staffers are active members and contributors to the science and technology communities.
