Abstract

A paint is a liquid or solid mixture of a plurality of particles and an inorganic binder such as a silicate. The particles have a composition AxAl(1-x)Ga!.sub.2 O.sub.4 (.delta.In), wherein A is zinc or cadmium, the value of x is from 0 to 1, and the value of .delta. is from 0 to about 0.2. In the liquid mixture, a paint vehicle is also typically present to impart the desired fluidity to the mixture. The solid paint made using this material is white, has very low solar absorptance, and may be made electrically conductive by doping the particles with indium or other appropriate dopant.
