  2. Thermoforming - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermoforming

    In its simplest form, a small tabletop or lab size machine can be used to heat small cut sections of plastic sheet and stretch it over a mold using vacuum. This method is often used for sample and prototype parts. In complex and high-volume applications, very large production machines are utilized to heat and form the plastic sheet and trim the ...

  3. Vapor barrier - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_barrier

    Polyethylene plastic sheet, 4 or 6 thou (0.10 or 0.15 mm), 0.03 US perm (1.7 SI perm). Advanced Polyethylene vapor retarders that pass the ASTM E 1745 standard tests ≤0.3 US perm (17 SI perm). Asphalt-coated kraft paper, often attached to one side of fiberglass batts, 0.40 US perm (22 SI perm). Metallized film

  4. Perm (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perm_(unit)

    A variant of the metric perm is used in DIN Standard 53122, where permeance is also expressed in grams per square meter per day, but at a fixed, "standard" vapor-pressure difference of 17.918 mmHg. This unit is thus 17.918 times smaller than a metric perm, corresponding to about 0.084683 of a U.S. perm.

  5. Thermal insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 and materials.

  6. Low emissivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low_emissivity

    As it is an opaque material, the remaining 10 percent must be reflected. Conversely, a low-e material such as aluminum foil has a thermal emissivity/absorptance value of 0.03 and as an opaque material, the thermal reflectance value must be 1.0 - 0.03 =0.97, meaning it reflects 97 percent of radiant thermal energy. Low-emissivity building ...
