  2. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

    A small quantity of polyolefin is melted as an adhesive to bind the product together (and is preferable to formaldehyde adhesives). Installation is similar to fiberglass, without the need for a respirator but requiring some additional time to cut the material. Cotton insulation costs about 10-20% more than fiberglass insulation. [23]

  4. List of insulation materials - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_insulation_materials

    This is a list of insulation materials used around the world. Typical R-values are given for various materials and structures as approximations based on the average of available figures and are sorted by lowest value. R-value at 1 m gives R-values normalised to a 1 metre (3 ft 3 in) thickness and sorts by median value of the range.

  5. Mineral wool - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mineral_wool

    Mineral wool is any fibrous material formed by spinning or drawing molten mineral or rock materials such as slag and ceramics. [1] Applications of mineral wool include thermal insulation (as both structural insulation and pipe insulation), filtration, soundproofing, and hydroponic growth medium.

  6. Wool insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wool_insulation

    Wool insulation commonly comes in rolls of batts or ropes with varied widths and thicknesses depending on the manufacturer. Generally, wool batts have thicknesses of 50 mm (2 in) to 100mm (4 in), with widths of 400 mm (16 in) and 600 mm (24 in), and lengths of 4000 mm (13 ft 4 in), 5000 mm (16 ft 8 in), 6000 mm (20 ft) and 7200 mm (24 ft).

  7. Vacuum insulated panel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_insulated_panel

    A vacuum insulated panel (VIP) is a form of thermal insulation consisting of a gas-tight enclosure surrounding a rigid core, from which the air has been evacuated. It is used in building construction, refrigeration units, and insulated shipping containers to provide better insulation performance than conventional insulation materials. [1] [2]

  8. Exterior insulation finishing system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exterior_insulation...

    It uses expanded polystyrene (EPS) insulation adhered to the substrate with fiberglass mesh embedded in a nominal 1 ⁄ 16 inch (1.6 mm) base coat which can receive additional layers of mesh for stronger impact resistance. Other types of insulation board can include polyisocyanurate.

  9. Thermal insulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_insulation

    Mineral wool insulation, 1600 dpi scan. 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 ...
