It contains minerals such as pyroxene, amphibole, feldspar and 63-68 percent silica. The eruption temperature for dacitic lava is 1,500 to 1,800 degrees Fahrenheit. Dacitic to rhyolitic lava is so dangerous because it contains a high amount of crystals.Mt. Vesuvius erupts according to the Plinian model of eruption.
Foil has low emissivity, so will greatly reduce radiative heat transfer (act like insulation). It should face the side that is supposed to be cooler. But foil will not reduce conductive heat transfer, so it must be used judiciously with something that reduces conduction.
You mentioned an attic fan as well. The heat that is radiated away from the ceiling by the Sol-Blanket Insulation is pushed out of the attic with an attic fan. The US Department of Energy states that radiant barriers do work and suggest they be installed by professionals.
