Not really. If the insulation in the walls of your house absorbed heat, you would be very uncomfortable. Just the opposite really. Not transferring the heat out of the house or the cold in makes for a good insulator. Not transferring something is what the insulation does. The plastic coating on electrical wire. Glass or anything that doesn't conduct electricity is a good insulator. Anything that separates two or more things from coming into contact with each other.

What makes something a good insulator?
Trapped air makes a good insulator.
What TA make a good insulator?
Trapped air makes a good insulator.
Is lycra a good insulator?
Lycra is not good conductor of electricity. This is what makes it a good insulator together with most of the other fabrics.
Is coal a insulator?
Yes, because it has lots of trapped air in it and that's what makes a good insulator.
Is moss a good insulator?
Yes moss is a good insulator! It grows on trees and wood, so that makes it good. Enjoy your project or whatever

Why is tape a good insulator?
Duct Tape is made of rubber and since rubber is a good insulator that makes duct tape a good insulator. The best tape for insulating is electrical tape.

What makes a material a good insulators of heat?
Hot molecules moving makes a good heat insulator
How do you make a good insulator?
the insulator s metal must has fully filled orbital without any free electron
What property makes a material a good insulator?
No shared electrons between neighboring atoms/molecules in the material makes for a good electric insulator.A good thermal insulator has lots of air or gas (which insulates) trapped in the material.
