Particle Guy

Most insulative coatings lean on the same few tricks: reflect some sun, trap a little air, hope it's enough. In this session, NanoTech Materials' Technical Director — known to our LinkedIn followers as The Particle Guy — breaks down what's actually happening at the particle level, and why it matters for real-world performance.

In 30 minutes, Jonathan will cover:

• The particle. What it's made of and how it's engineered differently from conventional insulative fillers.
• The science behind it. Why thermal conductivity works the way it does, and how particle design controls it.
• How it performs in real life. What the lab data shows, and how that translates to performance on an actual building.

This is a science-first session — built for anyone curious about the why behind the coating, not just the spec sheet.

What you'll walk away with

• A clear, plain-language explanation of thermal conductivity and why it's central to insulative coating performance
• An inside look at how NanoTech's particle is designed and why that design choice matters
• The chance to get your own questions answered live
