The goal of insulation used in building construction is to slow down heat transfer. The same materials are required to keep buildings cooler in hot climates, or warmer in cold climates; methods may be different because of the necessity to manage humidity buildup differently. Occupied buildings always need to evacuate humidity. No substance can stop heat transfer from occurring.
