摘要: 辐射制冷是一种通过红外辐射来实现降温的零能耗的被动降温技术,对缓解全球气候变暖和能源消耗具有重要意义。目前现有的日间辐射制冷材料主要为光子晶体、光学超材料、无机涂层等石油基材料,其价格昂贵、生产工艺复杂且不可再生,而纤维素作为一种可再生可降解的生物质,其具有高红外发射率、绿色可再生以及易加工等特性,在日间辐射制冷领域表现出巨大的应用前景。基于此,本文从辐射制冷的基本原理出发,介绍了日间辐射制冷的物理光学机制,综述了近几年薄膜类、织物类、气凝胶类、结构块材类等不同结构形态纤维素辐射制冷材料的研究进展,从微纳米尺度上阐释了纤维素不同尺寸结构对日间辐射制冷性能的影响机制,并展望了纤维素基辐射制冷材料在高功率、动态及智能化生物质辐射制冷材料领域的应用优势和前景。Abstract: Radiative cooling is a zero-consumption passive cooling technology, which can realize cooling via infrared radiation, showing great application in mitigating global warming and energy consumption. To date, traditional daytime radiative cooling materials are produced from petroleum, such as photonics, optical metamaterials, inorganic coatings, which are costly, complex to process, and unrenewable. Biomass cellulose show great application in daytime radiative cooling field due to its high infrared emissivity, renewable, and easy processable property. In this paper, based on the fundamental principle of radiative cooling, the physical and optical mechanism of daytime radiative cooling was firstly discussed. We divided the cellulose based daytime radiative cooling materials into cooling films, cooling fabrics, cooling aerogels, and cooling structural materials based on the structure and morphology. We also elucidated the mechanism of the influence of different structures of cellulose on the daytime radiative cooling performance at the micro and nano scales. Finally, the future research and development direction of cellulose-based radiative cooling materials are discussed: the biomass based daytime radiative cooling materials with high cooling power and dynamic/smart function is highly demand in the future.
