Fenomena Urban Heat Island (UHI), yang disebabkan oleh penyerapan panas aspal konvensional, memerlukan solusi inovatif. Penelitian ini mengevaluasi efektivitas berbagai heat-reflective coatings (HRC) di iklim tropis Indonesia untuk menurunkan suhu permukaan aspal dan meningkatkan efisiensi termal. Penelitian ini mensimulasikan siklus pemanasan dan pendinginan 12 jam, menguji tiga gradasi aspal: Dense Graded (DG), Open Graded (OG), dan Gap Graded (GG). Setiap gradasi diaplikasikan dengan HRC berbeda, yaitu Resin Epoksi Putih (REP), BeCool (BC), Resin Epoksi Hijau (REH), dan Emulsi Akrilik Hijau (EAH). Hasilnya menunjukkan HRC sangat efektif mengurangi suhu. Resin Epoksi Hijau (DG REH) pada Dense Graded menjadi yang paling unggul, mencapai suhu puncak terendah 49,4°C dan suhu akhir terdingin 27,5°C. Keunggulan ini berkat kombinasi pigmen Titanium Dioksida dan Iron Oxide yang memantulkan radiasi inframerah dekat. Dalam fase suhu puncak, DG REH paling efektif menekan kenaikan suhu pada Dense Graded, dengan penurunan suhu puncak 35,1°C. Resin Epoksi Putih efektif pada Open Graded (21,6°C) dan Gap Graded (17,3°C). Dalam fase pendinginan, DG REH kembali unggul pada Dense Graded (10,6°C), sementara OG REP terbaik pada Open Graded (5,4°C), dan GG REP memimpin pada Gap Graded (2,6°C). Ini menegaskan DG REH sebagai material HRC paling efektif dalam melepaskan panas, mendukung upaya kota berkelanjutan.
