Urban heat island (UHI) is a key challenge in densely populated cities, influenced by the thermal properties of materials, reflective and cooling materials, life cycle assessment (LCA) and urban policies. This study, using a systematic review and the PRISMA method, examines the impact of these factors in four categories and shows that materials with high heat capacity and low reflectance contribute significantly to the intensification of thermal effects. In contrast, the use of cooling materials and reflective coatings leads to a reduction in surface temperatures. In addition, LCA has been highlighted as an analytical tool for assessing the environmental impacts of materials and optimizing material selection. However, this method's lack of standardization and integration into urban policymaking has faced challenges. The findings suggest that integrating LCA into urban decision-making processes and developing policies that promote the development and use of sustainable materials can significantly reduce UHI and contribute to urban sustainability in various fields, such as environmental and energy.
