Aluminum Glossary - E
...obtained from sheet specimens will be lower for thin sheet than for thicker sheet. Embrittlement Reduction in the normal ductility of a metal, due to physical or chemical change. Emissivity The relative ability of a material to radiate energy per unit of surface area expressed as a ratio to the radiation rate of an ideal black body of identical area and temperature. See #1.

AMSCOWindows.com - Glossary of Window Industry Terminology
An insulating glass (IG) unit is two glass panes separated by a spacer and sealed. IG glass is offered in clear (no special coating) and high performance, which has a tinted, low-emissivity coating for exceptional energy efficiency. back to top K-value The K-value of any material describes the amount of heat that moves through a material over time. See #2.

 

Metl-Span Green Building
2 - Exterior Design to Reduce Heat Islands Metl-Span insulated metal roof panels meet the requirements for low-slope roofing. They have an initial solar reflectance of 0.68 and emissivity of 0.90 with a Polar White exterior skin color. Metl-Span insulated metal roof panels are also available in a variety of colors meeting the solar reflectance... See #3.

...types are available such as laminated, azurite, solar bronze, etc. Click here to learn more about the various glass types we offer. Q: What is "Low-E" Glass? A: Low-E (Emissivity) glass products give you year-round energy savings and comfort by helping manage the sun's energy and the heating system energy in your home. Low-E glass... See #4.

Everything Ice
...often as we have many other new products soon to be released; Low-E-Ice Low-E-Ice is a new patent pending aluminum ice paint product which turns the ice paint layer into a low emissivity surface which can save up to 50% energy savings for an ice rink. It works like a low emissivity ceiling but in reverse. Outdoor rinks with direct sunlight... See #5.

Extreme Efficiency
...the single-pane windows is not a primary concern. Interior windows on the south side of the house incorporate clear, double glazing with an SHGC of 0.8. The standard low-E (low-emissivity) glazing offered by my window manufacturer has an SHGC of only 0.41—not something you’d want if you’re trying to depend on solar gain for passive heating. See #6.

Ainsworth Lumber - AinsworthEngineered Thermastrand ®
...radiant barrier panels are manufactured with a patented in-line foil application process* that provides superior foil adhesion guaranteed against delamination. The low-emissivity aluminum foil** is micro-perforated so the panel has better breathability, which helps prevent bubbling, peeling, delamination and warping. Ainsworth Engineered... See #7.
