RMIT researchers have created a new solar paint that absorbs moisture from the air and uses sunlight to split water atoms and harvest hydrogen as fuel.
The paint is a mix of titanium oxide, a common white pigment in wall paints, and a new material, synthetic molybdenum-sulphide, that acts like a silica gel sachet in the way it absorbs moisture.
