an electrical component, the higher number allows less to soak through.

No, insulation rated R-35 offers better thermal resistance than insulation rated R-1. A higher R-value indicates better insulating properties and the ability to reduce heat transfer through the material.
Materials such as wood, fiberglass, and foam insulation are poor conductors of heat and therefore do not easily allow heat to pass through them. These materials are commonly used for insulation to help regulate indoor temperatures and prevent heat loss.
Thicker insulation reduces heat loss by providing a greater barrier for heat transfer through conduction. Thicker insulation also reduces the flow of air through the material, which helps minimize heat loss through convection. Generally, increasing the thickness of insulation can significantly improve energy efficiency and reduce heating costs.
Wood is considered to be an insulator of heat. This is because wood has a low thermal conductivity which means it does not easily allow heat to pass through it. This property makes wood a good material for insulation in buildings and other applications.
Insulators such as wood, rubber, plastic, and glass do not allow heat to pass through easily because they have low thermal conductivity. This property makes them good choices for applications where heat transfer needs to be minimized, such as in building insulation or protective clothing.
R35 insulation allows LESS heat to pass through than R1 insulation.

An insulator is an object that does not conduct (allow something to flow through it). It is used typically in heat or electricity applications. For example, insulation in a house, keeps heat from escaping outside.
Heat insulation reduces the rate of heat flow. Sound insulation reduces the amplitude of the sound energy transmitted through a cavity.

An insulator is a material that does not allow heat energy to easily flow through it. It is used to help prevent heat transfer and maintain temperature control in various applications. Examples include fiberglass, foam, and cellulose.
Insulation walls prevent heat transfer primarily through three methods: conduction (heat moving through a solid material), convection (heat transfer through a fluid like air), and radiation (heat transfer through electromagnetic waves). The insulation material acts as a barrier to reduce the flow of heat, helping to maintain a consistent temperature inside the building.
