Abstract

This study examines topological dependence of diffuse reflectance for IR absorbing materials. A theoretical foundation for this functional dependence is described, elucidating physical processes underlying topological dependence of IR diffuse reflectance of composite-material layers on substrates. The dependence is examined by case studies using composite-material layers that include IR absorbing dyes on fabric substrates. Understanding the topological dependence of diffuse reflectance can assist in determining optimal composite-material configurations for specific reflectance specifications, which can include UV protecting materials.
