I am building an extension to our existing home and am preparing to insulate the roof which is a low-slope (2:12) cathedral ceiling. I am building the roof using 2 x10 rafters. The roof assembly will be completely sealed.
Many Thanks,

Hi Jean:

Jean,
It looks like your question was cut off before you finished posting.
Here is a link to another article -- different from the one that Steve suggested -- discussing insulation options for low-slope roofs: Insulating Low-Slope Residential Roofs.
