Boja za samočišćenje: A Futuristic Dream Come True

Dealing first with types of paint, tehnologija koja je sada dostupna znanstvenicima pomaže im u razvoju vrsta boja s novim i vrlo korisnim svojstvima.

Tech Times shows how a new ‘nanocoating’ — a paint made from coated titanium dioxide nanoparticles — can actually help to create ‘self-cleaning’ waterproof surfaces.

The article quotes chemist Yao Liu, who explained: “Being waterproof allows materials to self-clean as water forms marble-shaped droplets that roll over the surface, acting like miniature vacuum cleaners picking up dirt, viruses and bacteria along the way.”

Developments such as this can clearly have a big impact on surfaces exposed to extremes, be they indoor or outdoors.
