Advanced thermal management is crucial in mitigating the escalating global energy consumption and alleviating associated climatic and environmental issues. Here, a dual-mode film that integrates solar heating and radiative cooling functionalities for year-round thermal management is introduced. The cooling side of the film, composed of PCL-SiO2 composite nanofibers, exhibits an impressive solar reflection of 0.98 […]
