Claim 0:
1. A vacuum adiabatic body comprising:
a first plate to have a first temperature;
a second plate to have a second temperature different than the first temperature;
a seal that seals the first plate and the second plate to provide an inner space, and the inner space is to be provided in a vacuum state;
a support provided in the inner space to maintain a gap in the inner space, wherein a thickness of the gap is defined in a first direction between the second plate and the first plate; and
a peripheral adiabatic body provided adjacent to a first distal end of the inner space and adjacent to a second distal end of the inner space spaced apart from the first distal end, to improve adiabatic performance at the first and second distal ends of the inner space,
wherein the peripheral adiabatic body includes a first portion being aligned with the inner space in the first direction, and a second portion not being aligned with the inner space in the first direction,
wherein the peripheral adiabatic body contacts an outside surface of the first plate and a surface of the second plate outside of the inner space,
wherein the peripheral adiabatic body contacts with at least two outer surfaces of two walls forming the inner space, and
wherein a thickness of the peripheral adiabatic body in the first direction is greater than the thickness of the gap between the second plate and the first plate in the first direction.
