radiant barriers (building materials, <materials by function>, ... Materials (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Highly reflective building materials with nonradiating properties, usually aluminum-foil-faced kraft paper or plastic film, placed in an airspace to block only radiant transfer from a heat-radiating surface, such as a hot roof, to a heat-absorbing surface, such as conventional attic insulation.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Dutch ..... Sterk reflecterende bouwmaterialen die geen straling afgeven, meestal kraftpapier bedekt met aluminiumfolie of een plastic folie, die in een gesloten luchtruimte worden geplaatst om alleen de stralingsoverdracht tegen te gaan van warmte-uitstralend oppervlak (een heet dak) naar een warmte-absorberend oppervlak (gewone zolder-isolatie). |
| Spanish ..... Materiales de construcción altamente reflectantes con propiedades no radiantes, habitualmente papel manila o película de plástico con una cara de lámina de aluminio colocado en un espacio de aire para bloquear sólo la transferencia radiante desde una superficie que irradia calor, como en un techo caliente, hasta una superficie que absorbe calor, tal como un aislamiento convencional para áticos. |
