Cork does not have the "free electrons" that are necassary for current flow. In other words, cork holds onto its electrons better than an object such as metal does.

Is cork an conductor or an insulator?
Is wool a conductor or an insulator
Is cork a conductor of heat?
no its an insulator.
Is cork a good conductor of heat?
Cork can be used in a lot of ways. Because it floats a magnetized needle placed on top of a piece of cork will act as a compass. This simple device can also respond to a permanent magnet and show action at a distance. Cork can also be used to seal a flask against low pressure leakage.

What is the wrost insulator?
Cork
Is cork conductor of heat?
no its an insulator.
Is cork a conductor of heat?
no its an insulator.
Can cork let heat out?
Yes, but very slowly. Cork is a good insulator.
Is a cork an insulator or a conductor?
It's an insulator - it's manufactured from tree bark.
What makes an insulator insulate?
A material that insulates, especially a nonconductor of sound, heat, or electricity. A device that insulates another material or space from something. For instance glass is a good insulator from electricity. The electrons will not flow through glass. Cork is a good insulator from sound. Sound waves have a hard time passing through cork. Wood is a good insulator from heat.

Does electricity travel through copper?
Cork should be a poor conductor. Cork is a lite wood like, low density material. Often used to insulate heat, which is a clue. Things that are not good conductors of heat are normally poor conductors of electricity.
Is vinyl a conductor or an insulator?
insulator
Is a wooden Craft stick a conductor or insulation?
It is an insulator.
