Scientists in Singapore have developed a new type of paint that reflects sunlight and cools surfaces by slowly evaporating water.

The paint’s porous structure holds water and slowly releases it, like the body does sweat.

It reflects 88 to 92 percent of sunlight, even when wet, and emits up to 95 percent of the heat it absorbs.
