Can you apply this technology - coupled with AeroGel based insulation of radiators - to shipping containers/container walls?

This would allow for a really low cost refridgerated/temp-controlled containter. Then have a small requirement for a solar panel to pump some fluids. The result would be the ability to have shipping containers that can maintain temps with extremely low cost/energy requirements and you might revolutionize the ability to ship foods around places like Africa.

Also - can this be applied in any way as a "paint"? Such that you paint cars, roofs or whatever with this?

This is brilliant! Specifically the container idea!
