The second is Kapton tape (aka polyimide tape), which is basically electrical tape but better. You can find either type of tape for sale at hardware stores here on Earth, but the tapes that astronauts bring to space are tested extensively to ensure they don't produce any off-gases (problematic, if you're in an enclosed space), or degrade in the harsh exterior of the habitat."
