Key innovations
The innovation point of this high-performance nano titanium dioxide self-cleaning coating is that it uses nanotechnology to decompose dirt under the sun, integrating multiple functions such as self-cleaning, anti-reflection, improvement of photovoltaic efficiency, and extension of life.
Potential economic benefits
The self-cleaning coating can reduce the cost of using glass curtain walls by 20 yuan/square meter and significantly reduce cleaning and maintenance costs. At the same time, it can increase the transmittance of sunlight, improve the conversion efficiency and service life of photovoltaic cells, thereby improving building energy efficiency, reducing operating costs, and increasing energy output, with significant economic benefits.
Potential climate benefits
The coating can reduce carbon emissions by decomposing dirt, reducing clean water, chemicals and related transportation energy consumption. Anti-reflection glass can enhance natural lighting and reduce building lighting energy consumption. Used in photovoltaic cells directly improves power generation efficiency and extends life, increases clean energy output, and reduces the carbon footprint of panel renewal.

Solution details

High-performance self-cleaning coatings are used for surface coatings of glass curtain walls and building exterior walls. The high-performance nano titanium dioxide sol coatings can decompose dirt on glass surfaces or exterior walls coatings under sunlight irradiation. They have good weather resistance, easy to use, cleaning and transparency., colorless and transparent. After coating, the cost of building glass curtain walls can be reduced by 20 yuan/square meter, effectively removing exterior wall pollutants; when used on glass surfaces, it can increase the transparency of sunlight; It can improve the conversion efficiency and service life of photovoltaic cells. At present, mass production technology and coating technology for nano-titanium dioxide high-performance environmentally friendly self-cleaning coatings have been formed.
