Best Answer

Hot glue is a good insulator because it is a poor conductor of heat and electricity. Its chemical composition and structure prevent the transfer of heat or electric current, making it ideal for insulating applications. Additionally, hot glue forms a tight seal when it cools and hardens, further enhancing its insulating properties.
