What is the procedure of what keeps things colder plastic wrap or aluminum foil?
aluminum foil it seals the cold in alot more than plastic wrap.ans2, RIGHT answer, but reason not quite correct. The shiny aluminum will reflect all heat.And since your package is cold, the only ways it can heat up are conduction, radiation, and convection. Of which three, Aluminum foil will stop radiation and largely stop convection.

Which combs are better to use in winter plastic or aluminum?
Aluminum combs are better to use in winter than plastic because it can chargemore easily in the dry air during the winter.Another opinion:I'm going to say that the aluminum comb is better to use in Winter, but for exactlythe opposite reason. The aluminum comb, being a conductor and being held in yourhand, can not hold a static charge, and this is exactly what you need in dry air. Ifyou combed your hair with something that could gather and hold a charge, then themore you comb, the more each hair becomes charged, and wants to stand straightup and stay away from every other hair. This is exactly what you're trying to avoidby combing it.
