Scientists have created an exceptionally reflective white paint to cool buildings. This new coating bounces away nearly all incoming sunlight, reducing heat absorption. Laboratory tests show the paint reflects 98.1% of sunlight, outperforming standard paints. Outdoor trials demonstrated surface temperatures significantly cooler than ambient air. This innovation offers a practical way to lower cooling energy demand in warm climates.
