Using vacuum as an insulator avoids heat loss by conduction. Heat transfer is minimised by reflective silver surfaces that are applied to the flask. This prevents thermal radiation from entering and escaping the flask.

Foam wrap can reduce radiation and conduction because it is not a very good heat conductor.
The vacuum reduce heat loss by conduction and convection.
A vacuum between two glass sheets will greatly reduce heat loss through convection, and also through conduction. The fact that the glass is coated (to convert it to a mirror) also reduces the loss by radiation.
It is especially designed to reduce heat transfer through conduction, convection, and radiation. A vacuum between two layers reduces the heat transfer through conduction and convection; the fact that the surfaces are mirror-coated also reduces losses through radiation.

To reduce heat loss by thermal radiation.
There is a silvering in the vacuum flask in order to reduce the loss of heat through the means of radiation.

A flask is used to mantain temperature of something inside it. It prevents the loss of heat through convection, conduction or radiation. It has a vaccum in between the refill and the wall which stops convection and conduction. The walls are coloured white so that heat does not radiate.
it consists a double walled glass vessel having a vaccum between the walls.both these walls are silvered on the vaccum side.no heat can enter or leave the inner flask by convection oor conduction across vaccum.a small amount of heat can be gained by the flask through by radiation but the silver surface to control radiant heat and reduce it to a minimum

Vaccum between thermos walls does NOT prevent radiation, however the other forms of heat transfer(convection and conduction) are more or less eliminated. Radiation effect of heat transfer may be reduced by applying a layer of reflective material inside the bootles - to reflect the emmision back inwards.
