  2. Igloo effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igloo_effect

    An igloo constructed with snow blocks will thermally insulate its interior from its exterior. It is known that, whilst snow itself has a temperature below the freezing point of water 0 °C (32 °F), it has excellent thermally insulative properties as it consists of air pockets trapped between ice crystals.

    Instruments measured weather conditions on the roof, temperatures inside the building and throughout the roof layers, and air conditioning and total building power consumption. Measurements were taken with the original black rubber roofing membrane and then after replacement with a white vinyl roof with the same insulation and HVAC systems in ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_wool

    Glass wool batt insulation. Glass wool is an insulating material made from glass fiber arranged using a binder into a texture similar to wool.The process traps many small pockets of air between the glass, and these small air pockets result in high thermal insulation properties.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weatherstripping

    Weatherstripping around openings – especially doors and windows – is used in buildings to keep out weather, increase interior comfort, lower utility bills, [2] and reduce noise. Builder weatherstripping can be made from felt; [ 3 ] vinyl, rubber, or poly foam; [ 2 ] [ 3 ] EPDM cellular rubber and vinyl tubing; [ 4 ] and metals such as brass ...

  6. 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.
