Scientists in Hong Kong have demonstrated a new ultra-white ceramic material that can drastically cool buildings by reflecting sunlight and heat at record highs. The beetle-inspired material gets its ability from its nanostructure, stays tough to the elements and should be relatively easy to scale…
Ultra-white ceramic cools buildings with record-high 99.6% reflectivity::undefined
lol, it doesn’t have to be aerosolized in order for it to be sprayed. It can come out of a spray hose nozzle and be appropriately viscous. Workers can wear PPD.
You’re missing the point, and even at that: this reply is insanely short-sighted. Aerosolized or atomized, is still fucking airborne nanoparticle ceramic aluminum oxide. 🙄
I didn’t miss the point. You’re not understanding what I’m describing in a sufficiently contained substance that leaves its container and reaches its target surface with practically zero contamination of the local area. With a sufficiently viscous base liquid, it would be fine.
You’ve clearly never worked in any professional (let alone commercial) capacity with the medium(s) you’re championing, and the drive-by downvotes are whingy at best. Reddit will be the frog-boiling death of this platform. 🤦🏼♂️
I see that, rather than make you point with logic and facts, you’d rather just make petty and childish insults while complaining about downvotes. And you think it’s me bringing the bad Reddit influence?
Ah, yes, the ol’ Republican switcheroo. My argument is clear, concise, and factually-based, whereas yours is bluster and conjecture, yet you project your failings onto me in defense?
Next trick: make it into a paint or spray-on treatment.
Better yet, make a giant sheet of it and float it in the ocean to fix the earth’s albedo and stop climate change.
The copepods and algaes also need the light to draw down assloads of carbon though. Those tiny creatures suck up staggering amounts.
Wernstrom!
First, I’ll need tenure
Done!
Oh, great idea! A nanoparticle ceramic aluminum oxide aerosol? What could possibly go wrong? 🤣

How typical. Stay in school, kiddo.
lol, wow

Maybe a paint that you put on with a hairy stick brush would be better?
