Savecal.com - Inside Cool Paint When speaking
of cool paint, and cool roofing, it is important
to understand the science behind them. While
throughout history this concept has been utilised
to keep our structures more comfortable, it is
only relatively recently that the idea has been
understood. Two terms are the most prevalent,
solar reflectance and thermal emissivity.
Solar reflectance can be simply broken down to
referring to the amount of light reflected by a
surface and is quantified on a rating of 0 to 1,
with 1 reflecting 100 of light waves,
ultraviolet, infrared and visible. Thermal
emissivity, or thermal emittance, is the ability
to disperse radiant heat, and is also judged on a
scale of 0 to 1, though only determined in the
infrared range. How these combine, and how the
concepts can be applied, give us a greater
understanding of cool paint and how it
works. Albedo, derived from the Latin albus,
for white, is calculated by judging its
reflectance starting at 0, no reflection, for a
completely black surface to 1, complete
reflection, as a perfectly white. Of course in
practicality these ideals are not normally
achieved.

In naturally occurring substances most fall in
the range of .04, for a dark object like
charcoal, up to .9 as seen with freshly fallen
snow. When translating this into achievable
applications, a light colored paint that has been
enhanced through highly reflective additives can
achieve up to .72, while older, untreated dark
pigments can be as low as .05. These numbers
help to describe the benefits that can be
obtained through these new technologies. When
combined with the thermal emittance value we
arrive at a Solar Reflectance Index (SRI),
quantified on a scale from 0, for standard
black(reflectance.05, emittance .9) to 100,
standard white(reflectance.8, emittance.9) and a
perfect SRI being 122, designating a mirrored
surface. Again applying new technologies there
have been SRI ratings up to 88, roughly
designating that these paints will reflect and
emit nearly 90 of solar radiation. While treated
stainless steel roofing, widely considered to be
the most effective, landing in the range of 110
to 115. Correlated against a traditional black
tar roof, falling in around 10 on the SRI, this
drastic disparity can very quickly justify the
use of these newly developed products.

Applying these measurement systems, and
associated products, during the planning and
implementation of energy efficient building
solutions can greatly benefit both the bottom
line savings, associated with maintaining a
comfortable living environment, and the overall
asset of reduced energy consumption. By
actively promoting the use of high SRI products
overall usage and correlating costs can be easily
and efficiently managed. Thus resulting in a
more successful and economical structure with
lower energy demands and higher comfort levels.
These concepts, along with renewable energy
production and other sustainable environmental
principles will surely guide construction in a
viable and supportable future.
