most non metals like polystyrene and lots of plastics
from your mum a friend
Gold, diamond, rubber, and glass are poor heat conductors.
metals are good conductors of heat, i.e. iron, steel,... non-metals are bad, i.e. carbon...
Good conductors of heat transfer heat easily and efficiently, such as metals like copper and aluminum. Bad conductors, known as insulators, resist the flow of heat and are poor at conducting it, such as materials like rubber, wood, and air. Conductors have high thermal conductivity, while insulators have low thermal conductivity.
Substances that don't have the capacity to carry heat are called bad conductors of heat (or insulators ). Substances that have the capacity to carry heat are called good conductors of heat. As for electricity, it is very, much the same.

Plastic foam, fur, and feathers are bad conductors of heat because they have a lot of air pockets trapped within them. Air is a poor conductor of heat, so materials that have a high amount of air trapped within them are also poor conductors of heat. This trapped air creates a barrier that prevents the easy flow of heat, helping to insulate the object or organism.
Good Electrical conductors: All metals, ionic substances (in solution or molten form) Bad Electrical conductors: Water Good Heat conductors: All Metals Bad Heat Conductors: Water
good conductors of heat bad insulators low resistence high conductivity
good conductors of heat bad insulators low resistence high conductivity
Insulator are bad conductors of heat and electric current. They do not have the property of transferring heat and electricity from one point to another.
