Thermal insulated PVC windows for residential buildings: feasibility of insulation performance improvement by various elemental technologies
Herein, we aimed to improve the thermal insulation of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) windows to reduce the energy consumption of buildings. Currently, the gold standard PVC window is triple glazed and has a thermal transmittance of 0.7 W/(m2·K). However, further reduction in the thermal transmittance of t...
