Are insulators good conductor of heat?
Insulators are the complete opposite of conductors. Insulators insulate the heat, but conductors let it pass straight through.
What are heat conductors and heat insulators?
the substances that allow heat to pass through them easily are called heat conductors. the substances that do not allow heat to pass through them easily are called heat insulators. ruchi
What is the name for materials that do not allow heat to pass?
Materials that do not allow heat to pass are insulators. (In real life, there are no perfect insulators, but if not much heat passes, then it is an insulator.)
Why conductors conduct heat and electricity while insulators are known as poor conductors?
Conductors conduct heat and electricity well because they have delocalised electrons in their structure. Insulators, on the other hand, do not have delocalised electrons and therefore do not conduct heat and electricity as a conductor, although they do conduct to some extent.
Is thermoplastic is a good insulator of heat?
yes thermoplastics are good insulators of heat
What are some heat insulators?
Some heat insulators are fiberglass, polyurethane foam, and polystyrene. Two other thermal insulators used as insulating materials in building construction are mineral wool and cellular glass.
Why some of the materials are insulators?
They are bad conductors ,they do not allow heat transfer.
Name of some heat insulators?
Wood, Rubber, Glass etc
Are insulators good conductor of heat?

What are insulators of heat?
The substances that don't conduct heat through them are called as 'insulators of heat'. Eg - Plastic, Wood etc.
Are insulators Gasoline engines and diesel engines?
no, insulators protect the wiring, or contain heat from some source or another, or block electricity from flowing

Which is true heat can travel well through all materials or heat can travel well through some materials?
Some, but not all. Some materials are insulators- heat does not travel well through them.
What is the name for materials that do not allow heat to pass?
Materials that do not allow heat to pass are insulators. (In real life, there are no perfect insulators, but if not much heat passes, then it is an insulator.)
Good insulators of heat?
nonmetals
What are ceramic insulators used for?
Ceramic and porcelain insulators are used in conjunction with wires that may generate a large amount of heat. Ceramics have a very high heat tolerance, especially higher than plastic and some metals.
Name 2 insulators?
Insulators are materials or substances that do not readily allow the passage of sound or heat. Two examples of insulators are glass and porcelain.
