   Self-amalgamating tape. Self-amalgamating tape is a non-tacky silicone rubber tape that when stretched and wrapped around cables, electrical joints, hoses, and pipes combines or unites itself into a strong, seamless, rubbery, waterproof, and electrically insulating layer. [1][2] Unlike many other polymers and fibers, it is heat-, sunlight-, and ...

The side coated with adhesive is prevented from sticking together with wax paper. Adhesive tape used in autoclaving. Adheres to itself without using sticky adhesives; this tape is used in bondage.

4. Retroreflective sheeting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Retroreflective_sheeting

   Retroreflective sheeting for road signs is categorized by construction and performance specified by technical standards such as ASTM D4956-11a.; [1] various types give differing levels of retroreflection, effective view angles, and lifespan. [2] Sheeting has replaced button copy as the predominant type of retroreflector used in roadway signs.

5. Radiant barrier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_barrier

   A radiant barrier reflects heat radiation (radiant heat), preventing transfer from one side of the barrier to another due to a reflective, low emittance surface. In building applications, this surface is typically a very thin, mirror-like aluminum foil. The foil may be coated for resistance to the elements or for abrasion resistance.

6. Flashing (weatherproofing) - Wikipedia
