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.

3. 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).

4. Glass wool - Wikipedia

   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.

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.

7. 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.
