2. Space blanket - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Space_blanket

   A space blanket (also known as a Mylar blanket, emergency blanket, first aid blanket, safety blanket, thermal blanket, weather blanket, heat sheet, foil blanket, or shock blanket) is an especially low-weight, low-bulk blanket made of heat-reflective thin plastic sheeting. They are used on the exterior surfaces of spacecraft for thermal control ...

3. Multi-layer insulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multi-layer_insulation

   To reduce weight and blanket thickness, the internal layers are made very thin, but they must be opaque to thermal radiation. Since they don't need much structural strength, these internal layers are usually made of very thin plastic, about 6 μm ( 1 ⁄ 4 mil) thick, such as Mylar or Kapton , coated on one or both sides with a thin layer of ...

4. Polyethylene terephthalate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene_terephthalate

   Biaxially oriented PET (BOPET) film (including brands like "Mylar") can be aluminized by evaporating a thin film of metal onto it to reduce its permeability, and to make it reflective and opaque . These properties are useful in many applications, including flexible food packaging and thermal insulation (such as space blankets).
