In electronics terms this is called a non-conductor or materials that have a high dialectric value. Also these materials may be called insulators. They may consist of plastic,glass,paper,mica,wax which are among the most common in electronics. The dialectric value is determined by how well electricity can or cannot pass through each of these materials.

List 5 materials that electricity does not flow through well?
1.rubber 2.glass 3.plastic 4.wood 5.cloths This are some materials that electricity not flow through (I think)
What are materials called that do not allow a easy pathway flow of electricity?
They are usually called semi-conductors.
Why can't electricity flow through plastic?
Because metal and plastic arent the same materials so metal goes with the flow through static electricity but plastic cant.
Objects that stop the flow of electricity are good insulators what materials would be the best insulator for an electrical wire?
Plastic Tubing.
Which type of material that allows electricity to flow but not as freely?
Note that "electricity" doesn't flow, only current does, which is one aspect of electricity, does. Current is the flow of electrons. Good conductors are metals, such as copper or aluminum. Materials that allow the flow of electrons, but not as freely as good conductors are known as semiconductors. These are primarily silicon or germanium, that is "doped" with specific types of impurities to allow their current to be better controlled by the application of a voltage. Heat will also increase the flow of electrons in a semiconductor.
What materials will conduct the flow of electricity?
While electricity doesn't flow, current does. Conductors are materials that allow the electrical currents to flow through them. Metals are the best conduction, such as silver and copper.
What do we call materials that do not allow the flow of electricity?
static
Materials that electricity cannot flow through?
Note that "electricity" doesn't flow, only current does, which is one aspect of electricity, does. Current is the flow of electrons. The main materials that do not allow the easy flow of electrons are rubber, nylon wood, glass, ceramic, plastic and free air.
What are materials called that do not alllow electricity to flow through them?
nonconductors
Materials such as glass or ceramic that resist the flow of electricity?
"Insulators"
What is the materials called through which heat and electricity flow poorly?
insulators...
What type of materials allows electricity to flow through them unimpeded?
Superconductors

Is electricity a compound or element?
Electricity is a physical phenomenon (flow of electrons in materials) not a compound, mixture or element.
Is electricity a compound mixture or element?
Electricity is a physical phenomenon (flow of electrons in materials) not a compound, mixture or element.
Is electricity a element mixture or a compound?
Electricity is a physical phenomenon (flow of electrons in materials) not a compound, mixture or element.
Is electricity mixture a compound or element?
Electricity is a physical phenomenon (flow of electrons in materials) not a compound, mixture or element.
