Another Apple Patent – Light-Absorbing Paint

The number ONE brand in the mobile device market is inventing something new again. The American company for trademarks and patents published a new application. Another Apple patent – light-absorbing paint. The application mentions gadgets with surfaces coated with an anodized layer. The material resembles a matte surface and consists of nanotubes capable of absorbing all visible light.

Another Apple Patent – Light-Absorbing Paint

The document also states that the technology for applying the absorbing layer extends to such construction materials as:

• Metal.
• Steel.
• Aluminum.
• Titanium.
• Alloys containing the above materials.

It’s strange that there’s no plastic. Apparently, Apple considered polymer a poor material for making mobile device cases. Let’s wait and see if Samsung, Sony, or Xiaomi will take this patent.

Depth Color for Apple MacBook, Watch, or iPhone

The delicate taste of the apocalypse – such an interesting name for a future gadget in a light-absorbing body was invented by one of the social media users. There’s something to it. Considering the colorful smartphones flooding the market after the release of iPhone 11 in luxurious palettes. It’s time to surprise everyone again. Perhaps such a color will blow the minds of millions of brand fans. Or Apple will suffer a failure. It’s a gamble – you never know what these customers want. And where the next Apple patent – light-absorbing paint – will lead.

By the way, the most effective natural light absorber in nature is coal. On average, it absorbs 96-97% of visible light. When it comes to artificial materials, nanotubes are more effective at absorbing light. Their ability to “eat” light is 99.97%. The production technology for these tubes was invented by British scientists in 2014. There is also a material called MIT Black (absorption 99.99%). No one has seen it, but the name is actively used in paint and coating materials.
