Zinc is a fair conductor of heat, this is due to it's low melting point. And please don't assume that if it's a metal is a good conductor heat and electricity, thank you.

∙ 13y agoYes, zinc is a fairly good thermal conductor. Among elements it is rated number 16 from the top.
Thermal conductors are rated by W/cmK. Without going into the explanation, a higher number represents a better conductor, and 0.0 means no conductivity at all. Zinc is rated at 1.16 W/cmK. By comparison, copper, which is second best as a thermal conductor among elements, is rated at 4.01 W/cmK.

∙ 13y agoConsidering that Zinc is a metal and metals are malleable, shiny, ductile, and good conductors of electricity and heat, it is a very logical explanation that Zinc is in fact a good conductor of thermal energy.
Thank you very much:)

∙ 9y agowell, it loses its hardness between 110°C and 150°C, so I would say no
