2. Radiant barrier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_barrier

   Radiant barrier materials must have low emissivity (usually 0.1 or less) at the wavelengths at which they are expected to function. For typical building materials, the wavelengths are in the mid- and long-infrared spectrum, in the range of 3-15 micrometres. [citation needed] Radiant barriers may or may not exhibit high visual reflectivity.

3. Oriented strand board - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oriented_strand_board

   For exterior wall applications, panels are available with a radiant-barrier layer laminated to one side; this eases installation and increases energy performance of the building envelope. OSB is also used in furniture production.

4. Interior radiation control coating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interior_radiation_control...

   The energy conserving property has been defined as thermal emittance (the ability of a surface to release radiant energy that it has absorbed). Those coatings qualified as Interior Radiation Control Coatings must show a thermal emittance of 0.25 or less. This means that an IRCCS will block 75% or more of the radiant heat transfer. These low "E ...

5. Sarking - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarking

   It acts as additional radiative (radiant barrier) and convective insulation and provides a condensation barrier. [ 1 ] In New Zealand, both corrugated metal and asbestos-cement shingle roofs were fitted directly over wooden sarking boards in the historical "bungalow" style of house construction.

6. Radiator reflector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiator_reflector

   Radiator reflector panels being installed behind a domestic radiator. A radiator reflector is a thin sheet or foil applied to the wall behind, and closely spaced from, a domestic heating radiator.
