Schematic representation of the differences between semi-transparent and opaque textile materials. (a) Solar radiation is transmitted through a partially transparent textile during the day. The building underneath is heated to different degrees depending on the substrate and background material. (b) Solar radiation cannot transmit through opaque samples, so the cooling capacity is independent of the substrate and background material, and the temperature below stays constant.
