What people are saying
Various posts highlight the cooling capabilities of the BaSO4 paint, such as claims that it can reduce surface temperatures below ambient levels and potentially eliminate the need for air conditioning. Phrases like 'game changer' and 'transformative' reflect an enthusiastic tone, while users share specific scientific details and links to further research, indicating a rich and thoughtful engagement with the topic.
The majority of discussions express strong support for the technology and its potential applications.
Participants display high levels of curiosity about the cooling properties and environmental implications of the BaSO4 paint.
Many users delve into technical details of the paint's materials and methods, showing a deep understanding and active involvement in the topic.
Overall sentiment suggests that users perceive the technology as having significant influence on climate mitigation efforts.
Abstract in brief
- Ultrawhite BaSO paints and films utilize passive radiative cooling technology to effectively reduce space cooling costs and combat urban heat.
- They achieve remarkable cooling performance through high solar reflectance and sky window emissivity, with BaSO films maintaining temperatures over 45°C below the ambient.
- The BaSO-acrylic paint is highly reliable, easy to use, and offers a competitive cooling performance, making it a viable alternative in commercial applications.

Another possibility is using white paints. CaCO₃ or BaSO₄ based paints that are transparent in the deep infrared, but reflect over 95%/98% of the incoming solar spectrum could be used to induce a cooling effect of >35/100 W/M² 24x7 Data courtesy Xiangshu Li UTK MABE formerly at Purdue

@sacca @antonioguterres @SecYellen Love this, right on the money. What do you think about https://t.co/9KBH8tuEsZ as a way to reflect sunlight? As it's on the ground, we could easily control the amount of reflection. Low risk.
Or, even better paint ultra white. Use BaSO4 #nanoparticle films and BaSO4 #nanocomposite paints and reach ultrahigh solar reflectance of 97.6% and a high sky window emissivity of 0.96. https://t.co/uqNCEsETEH
Barium sulfate is also great for making ultra-white paints. And it’s not just for about interior décor either – a higher degree of whiteness means increased reflectivity, which could help cool buildings more efficiently & using less energy! (See https://t.co/ujYTrifWnE) https://t.co/C0VYmkFkSu

Well, I found this, not in that article, but in the linked paper (https://t.co/oHy7HqJ5Pn) seems that for every kiloWatt/m(sq) of solar energy, most of which gets reflected, 150 Watts of infrared energy somehow gets released in the process.
