Zusammenfassung:Disclosed herein in is a radiative cooling formulation including a solvent for providing a viscosity of a radiative cooling material for application onto a surface to be passively cooled. The radiative cooling formulation includes a binder for the radiative cooling material's integrity and bonding to the surface to be passively cooled. The radiative cooling formulation includes a polymer, which, in combination with the binder, provides one or more properties in the radiative cooling material, including a reflectance of or greater than 55% in a wavelengths range of 0.3 to 2.5 microns and a first thermal emissivity peak value greater than 0.85 at a first wavelength in a range of 8 to 13 microns (μm). For example, the polymer is a latex material including a styrene based copolymer.
