Novel High-Performance ETICS Coatings with Cool Pigments Incorporation

External Thermal Insulation Composite Systems (ETICS) enhance building aesthetics and optimize thermal performance while offering protection against weather, fire, harmful agents. Key to these capabilities are properties of ETICS rendering. We have applied specialized organic renderings, including modified acrylic resins, additives, reflective pigments, mitigate color bleaching stress cracking induced by high surface temperatures, resulting in improved stability water protection. In a practical application at shopping center Portugal, we observed reduced coating layer failures, better resistance, lower maintenance costs over one year. Subsequent research reveals the benefits Near Infrared Reflective (NIR) pigments nanocomposites such as titanium dioxide, which increase solar reflectance, resistance dirt, promote self-cleaning. Synthetic colored inorganic improve heat stability, inertia, mechanical resistance. The cool also reduces temperature up 10 °C. These advancements technology mark significant step towards sustainable practices.
