Mineral oils are good insulators and are used in power Transformers to insulate and conduct heat away from the core. Some vegetable oils may have a water component and be less effective insulators.

∙ 12y agobecause it's so thick and choppy it's hard for electrons to pass through it
Wiki User
∙ 12y agoOil is an insulator since it doesnot have, or has very few free electrons on its outermost energy level.
Wiki User
∙ 15y agoYes, indeed oil conducts meow heat.

Does hydrogen conduct heat?
Yes. Everything conducts heat. However, as a gas hydrogen does not conduct heat very well. Heat is distributed more by convection.
Does propane conduct heat?
No. it does not
Does Caesium conduct heat?
Yes. Caesium is a metal, all metals conduct heat and electricity quite well.
What are three things metals can do?
conduct electricity, conduct heat, melt
How does liquid conduct heat?
by convection
Does a teapot conduct heat?
can a teapot conduct heat
Does germanium conduct heat?
Germanium is a metal that does conduct heat, but does not conduct heat as well as other metals. This makes it a semiconductor.
Which meterial not conduct the heat?
Non-metals tend to not conduct heat
Can solar heat conduct electricity?
yes solar heat can conduct electricity
What materials conduct heat and which do not?
Insulators do not conduct heat and are therefore non-metals. Metals do conduct heat, and vey well may i add. But, for the record, you're thinking of electricity. Potatoes conduct heat, and they're not metals. Anyone who has held a lump in their hand will tell you that playdough conducts heat, in fact, rather a lot of other materials conduct heat and water also conduct heat
Does vacuum conduct heat?
No because there is nothing to conduct heat
Do gasses conduct heat?
yes gasses conduct heat :D the level of conductivity depends on the density of gas , the more dense it is the more will it conduct the heat .
Do inductors conduct heat?
conductors conduct heat and electricity, and insulators keep the heat in. inductors give away energy as heat.
Does water conduct heat well?
it does , conduct heat well , just like it conducts electricity , heat can be produced to electricity , too
Can copper conduct heat?
yes copper can conduct heat. it conducts heat better than alluminium & iron.
Which metal does not conduct heat?
None. All metals conduct heat to some degree.
What is the only non metal that can conduct heat?
Graphite and Carbon will both conduct heat.
