Is plastic a good insulator of heat?
yes i think A2: No, Not in Solid form. It is a Very Good insulator If sprayed into closed-cell foam or spun into fabric.
Is snow around foundation good?
Yes snow is a natural insulator. No, it can contribute to rotting of your sills.
Is rubber tube a conductor?
There are definitely elastic resistors. The only application I can think of at this moment is the elastic sensor wrapped around a person's chest and used to monitor his breathing during a sleep study or a polygraph test. If you're talking about the common "rubber band" typically used to hold a bunch of papers or a wad of cash together, then no, that particular material is not too good at conducting a current.
Substances that are poor conductors of heat?
After the published tables the silica aerogel is a very good thermal insulator.
How do you build a good insulator with things from around the house?
Plastic, glass and wood have few valance electrons and are great insulators against the flow of electons.
Is plastic wrapped around the electric wires is a good conductor?
Plastic wrapped around the wire is insulator. Not a conductor. That is why it is wrapped around the conductor wire.
Why is a fabric a good insulator?
It is a good insulator because the fabric has little fibers in it to keep the cool AIR in, which means that the fabric is strong. ! :)

Which fabric is a better insulator for water?
Yes fabric can be an insulator. Different types of fabric work better than others though. For example wool works really well as an insulator and is good to wear outdoors in the winter. Cotton is another fairly good fabric insulator.
How is fabric a good insulator?
because it's not metal
Why copper electrical wires need to be wrapped in plastic?
as plastic is a good insulator of electricity.
Is plastic a good insulator of heat?
yes i think A2: No, Not in Solid form. It is a Very Good insulator If sprayed into closed-cell foam or spun into fabric.
Is fabric a good heat insulator?
In general yes, but it depends on the material, the thickness, and the weave.
Why does ice wrapped in newspapers do not melt easily?
The newspaper insulates the ice from heat.
Is nylon a good fabric for retaining pleats in a fabric skirt around a chair?
Yes I believe it is
Is sponge a good heat insulator?
it is good heat insulator, as it has air in it. as air is a good insulator of heat, the sponge, which has lots of pockets of air also becomes a good insulator
Is newspaper good insulator?
YES!... newspaper is a good insulator... Try wrapping newspapers around ice cream boxes... there is a big possibility that it'll stay cold.
