Abstract

Results are presented for the reflectivity of spray on foam insulation (SOFI) samples coated with a new high solar reflectivity coating. Reflectance spectra are presented comparing bare SOFI to samples with one, two, or three layers of the new coating as well as one sample with white paint. Samples were coated on the front side of the SOFI, where the surface height varies significantly, as well as on the flatter back surface. Predicted solar absorbance values are provided for a few select cases.
