Abstract:
PVDF/SiO2 composite films with a hierarchical structure were prepared by water bath solvent exchange and they realized the integration of self-cleaning and radiative cooling. The high scattering properties of SiO2 effectively enhanced the radiative cooling performance of the films, and the weathering stability of the composite films was evaluated by UV radiation treatment and friction resistance analysis.
