Research by Indiana University environmental scientists shows that air-pollution-removal technology used in "self-cleaning" paints and building surfaces may actually cause more problems than they solve.
Nano Labs Corp. announced the development of a new self-cleaning paint that degrades pollutants through a proprietary nanoparticle compound and natural light.
Eyeglasses need never again to be cleaned, and dirty windscreens are a thing of the past. Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Polymer Research in Mainz, Germany, and the Technical University Darmstadt, Darmstadt, Germany, are now much closer to achieving this goal.
