Nature’s blueprint: New power-free bio-inspired hydrogel cools buildings in summer, warms them in winter
Researchers from KAIST and Seoul National University developed a hydrogel material that regulates temperature without electricity. The bio-inspired design mimics poplar leaves that curl to reflect sunlight in heat and release warmth at night. The material autonomously switches between four heating and cooling modes based on environmental conditions. Outdoor tests showed temperatures up to 6.7°F […]
