We have developed a system of solar reflective coatings that can reflect the sunlight then reduce the temperature of coated surface. The base layer material, fluorinated polystyrene-acrylate copolymers water-based emulsion was firstly prepared with hexafluoro butyl methacrylate(HFBA), styrene(St), butyl acrylate(BA), methyl methacrylate (MMA) by pre-emulsion copolymerization method. The effect on copolymerization and emulsion properties were investigated, and the polymerization condition was optimized. A hollow ceramic micro-sphere was used as the main reflective functional fillers in the system. We had a test on the practical heat-insulating properties on a prototype device. The result showed that temperature difference of the surface was reached as 6.5 °C. The new type of reflective coatings also has good stability and durability.

This paper presented the results of a comparative study aiming to investigate the effect of reflective coatings on lowering surface temperatures of matrix. Moreover, the important factors of the amount and the color of colored hollow-ceramic micro sphere were discussed. It was demonstrated that the use of reflective coatings could reduce a white surface temperature by 6.5 °C compared to a sample. The temperature difference became to reduce while the color of coatings turned to dark from the white to the yellow.

The present study reveals the behavior of shear-thickening and shear-thinning fluids in magnetohydrodynamic flow comprising the significant impact of a hybrid nanofluid over a porous radially shrinking/stretching disc. The features of physical properties of water-based Ag/TiO2 hybrid nanofluid are examined. The leading flow problem is formulated initially in the requisite form of PDEs (partial differential equations) and then altered into a system of dimensionless ODEs (ordinary differential equations) by employing suitable variables. The renovated dimensionless ODEs are numerically resolved using the package of boundary value problem of fourth-order (bvp4c) available in the MATLAB software. The non-uniqueness of the results for the various pertaining parameters is discussed. There is a significant enhancement in the rate of heat transfer, approximately 13.2%, when the impact of suction governs about 10% in the boundary layer. Therefore, the heat transport rate and the thermal conductivity are greater for the new type of hybrid nanofluid compared with ordinary fluid. The bifurcation of the solutions takes place in the problem only for the shrinking case. Moreover, the sketches show that the nanoparticle volume fractions and the magnetic field delay the separation of the boundarylayer.

High performance thermal insulating ethylene-propylene-diene monomer (EPDM) composites were obtained with the addition of hollow phenolic micro-sphere. The effects of the pretreatment and content of micro-sphere on various properties of EPDM composites were evaluated. Experimental results showed that thermal conductivity and specific gravity of EPDM composites significantly decreased, which was due to the intact and uniform dispersion of pretreated micro-sphere throughout the EPDM matrix. With the content increasing of pretreated micro-sphere, the specific gravity of EPDM composites linearly decreased while the thermal stability increased. Specifically, EPDM composites showed the three-layer structure after ablation and the addition of pretreated micro-sphere distinctively enhanced thermal insulating properties of EPDM composites, which was attributed to multi-type heat conductivity resulted from hollow micro-spheres. Hollow phenolic micro-sphere exhibited great potential in preparing new generation of light-weight and high thermal insulating materials.

This study is to report the synthesis of polyacrylate-siloxane latex with vinyl triethoxysilane(DB-151), methyl methacrylate(MMA) acrylic acid(AA), butyl acrylate(BA) by emulsion copolymerization and characterized by FTIR. The physical properties are also analysized by water absorption, pencil hardness, circle adhesion method, etc.. The polymerization factors for emulsion had been discussed in several aspects. The results showed that the optimal conditions for synthesizing silicone-acrylate emulsion were of DB -151content of 6%~8%, emulsifier OP-10/SDS/ DNS-458 ratio:2/1/1, in stirring rate 450 r/min in the period of disperse and emulsification, stirring rate 200 r/min in the period of synthesis, with reaction temperature 75°C.

To solve the problems of conventional water-based drilling fluid, a new type of water-based drilling fluid system that comprises of water, multi-functional treatment agent and soluble salts is developed. Multi-functional treatment agent provides the necessary properties and soluble salt maintains the required density. The composition of the drilling fluid is simple and it is easy to maintain. This new drilling fluid has the advantages of good rheology and filtration properties, strong plugging and inhibiting abilities, low solid content, pollution-free, wide adaptability, easy preparation and repeated use. It is a new type of drilling fluid system.
