The goal of the study was to improve the thermal resistance of insulating materials used in buildings. The researchers focused on thermally reflective insulation, which is not widely used but offers benefits in buildings with large temperature differences. They found that increasing pressure to improve insulation efficiency is driving the need for thinner insulation layers.
