Scientists from the Rennes Institute of Chemical Sciences (ISCR/CNRS/Rennes 1 University/ENSCR/INSA Rennes), the international Laboratory for Innovative Key Materials and Structures (NIMS/Saint-Gobain/CNRS) and the Saint-Gobain research center of Paris have developed a family of coatings based on nanocomposites that are transparent to visible light, but absorb ultraviolet and near infrared rays, the latter being sources of heat. Deposited on glazing, they could thus selectively filter solar radiation. These results are the subject of publications in the journals Science and Technology of Advanced Materials and Nanomaterials. ...
