2. Structural insulated panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_insulated_panel

   Typical U.S. height for panels is 8 or 9 feet (2.4 or 2.7 m). Panels come in widths ranging from 4 to 12 inches (100–300 mm) thick and a rough cost is $4–$6/ft 2 in the U.S. [5] In 4Q 2010, new methods of forming radius, sine curve, arches and tubular SIPs were commercialized. Due to the custom nature and technical difficulty of forming and ...

3. Building insulation material - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Building_insulation_material

   Sheep's wool insulation is a very efficient thermal insulator with a similar performance to fiberglass, approximately R13-R16 for a 4-inch-thick layer. [22] Sheep's wool has no reduction in performance even when condensation is present, but its fire retarding treatment can deteriorate through repeated moisture. [ 23 ]

4. R-value (insulation) - Wikipedia

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

   For similar reasons, the R-value per inch also depends on the temperature of the material, usually increasing with decreasing temperature (polyisocyanurate again being an exception); a nominally R-13 fiberglass batt may be R-14 at −12 °C (10 °F) and R-12 at 43 °C (109 °F). [20]

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]
