  2. Spray foam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spray_foam

    Spray foam. Spray foam insulation extruding from a duct. Spray foam (expanding foam in the UK) is a chemical product created by a chemical reaction of two component parts, commonly referred to as side A and side B. [1] Side A contains very reactive chemicals known as isocyanate. Side B contains a polyol, which reacts with isocyanates to make ...

  3. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R-value_(insulation)

    R. -value (insulation) The R-value (in K ⋅ m 2/ W) is a measure of how well a two-dimensional barrier, such as a layer of insulation, a window or a complete wall or ceiling, resists the conductive [2] flow of heat, in the context of construction. [3] R-value is the temperature difference per unit of heat flux needed to sustain one unit of ...

  4. Insulated glazing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulated_glazing

    A window with insulating glass is commonly known as double glazing or a double-paned window, triple glazing or a triple-paned window, or quadruple glazing or a quadruple-paned window, depending upon how many panes of glass are used in its construction. Insulating glass units (IGUs) are typically manufactured with glass in thicknesses from 3 to ...

  5. Window insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Window_insulation

    Window insulation. Window insulation reduces heat transfer from one side of a window to the other. The U-value is used to refer to the amount of heat that can pass through a window, called thermal transmittance, with a lower score being better. [1] The U-factor of a window can often be found on the rating label of the window.

  6. Building insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation

    By installing insulation, buildings use less energy for heating and cooling and occupants experience less thermal variability. Retrofitting buildings with further insulation is an important climate change mitigation tactic, [1][2] especially when buildings are heated by oil, natural gas, or coal-based electricity.

  7. Thermal insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_insulation

    Thermal insulation. Thermal insulation is the reduction of heat transfer (i.e., the transfer of thermal energy between objects of differing temperature) between objects in thermal contact or in range of radiative influence. Thermal insulation can be achieved with specially engineered methods or processes, as well as with suitable object shapes ...
