摘要

Several industries such as food processing, architecture, engineering, and construction, and manufacturing sectors encounter significant obstacles in enhancing energy efficiency due to their considerable energy use, especially in energy-conversion systems. This research examines the improvement of heat conductivity in sheet metal composites using electrophoretic deposition (EPD) coatings of carbon-captured supra-graphene quantum dot (GQD) assemblies. These novel coatings, created using sustainable carbon-capture techniques, present a potential strategy for enhancing thermal conductivity for sheet metal materials. This study demonstrates that the integration of supra-GQDs into sheet metal coatings by EPD coating results in the increase of their thermal conductivity by as much as 280 pct relative to uncoated metals. Laboratory-scale tests and prototype assessments indicate that the coated metals exhibit enhanced heat transfer efficiency, with temperature differentials reaching 5.9 °C in building envelope simulations. Surface characterization methods, such as Raman spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM-EDS), validate the effective application of GQD assemblies onto metallic surfaces. This research presents an innovative approach to enhancing passive energy-efficient materials in sustainable building. The use of carbon-capture GQDs mitigates environmental issues while fulfilling the demand for superior thermal control in various building, food, and manufacturing applications, satisfying with the United Nation Sustainable Development Goals (UN-SDGs).
