Warm reflective film on the market can be divided into three categories according to material: One is basilemma and the others are fabric basilemma and insulation material composite basilemma. The paper basilemma can also be divided into two categories. One is the paper basilemma (not reinforced). Another is the reinforced paper basilemma (commonly known as reinforced aluminum foil). The paper basilemma is made by the means of curtain coating of paper and film in high temperature. It has the advantages of high brightness, smoothness, good adhesion, clear printing that is non-easy falling out. And it wouldn't roll. But its tensile strength is lower than the reinforced one. The reinforced basilemma is made by different manufacturing technique and equipment. It is made by the means of curtain coating followed by a process to sandwich a layer of fiberglass between two membranes. It has the advantages of high tensile strength. But also due to the production process, it has a bad printing effect and is easy to roll. Besides, The paper basilemma can be divided into two categories, namely the wood pulp paper and the straw pulp paper. There exists a large cost gap between them.
Warm reflective film is commonly called "aluminum foil" or "tin foil". But strictly speaking, it is not real "aluminum foil" or "tin foil". In fact, it is a kind of product made of high vacuum aluminum?laminated?films, paper, cloth and other insulation materials. Warm reflective film is the key part of the floor heating system which ensures the comfortable temperature and improves the heat reflection and radiation. The material of the warm reflective film and its quality directly affect the effect of the system. It is widely used in the project of low temperature floor heating and pipe insulation. Due to its special produce process and the use of additives, it is of brightness that is much higher than general ones. It also increases the amount of reflecting heat for several times. It is better to install it. The warm reflective film can maximize the reflection of heat. Otherwise, you can see, your home heats up while the most of the heat produced by your film runs downstairs if you do not install warm reflective film. That is really bad for the room insulation.
It is made of aluminum foil which can reflect the infrared radiation produced by the heating film. Infrared radiation is a form of heat transfer. All the objects with temperature will produce infrared rays, even for the one of temperature of several degrees below zero. The fire is an example which transfers the energy through infrared radiation and does no harm.
