Depending on which side of the double-sided product the air gap is one, AtticFoil will either use reflectivity to reflect heat, or emissivity to block it. Radiant barrier decking (ex. TechShield or Solar Board) uses emissivity, where as stapling AtticFoil to the bottom of the rafters uses reflectivity and is more effective at reducing heat transfer.
