[time-nuts] Thermal time constant

I have been wondering about achieving the rated thermal resistance
from plastic foam,
the problem being that radiant transmission may be very strong
through the foam.
What happens if you interleave concentric sheets of foam plastic with
aluminium foil? (taking care to keep the foil
on isothermal surfaces)
Will this stop the radiant transfer and leave only the thermal
conduction of the plastic foam?
cheers, Neville Michie
