Is a plastic pipe an insulator?
Yes , plastic is a poor conductor of heat!!:) Metal is a good conductor though
What is a material that is a poor energy conductor?
plastic
Is wax candle good conductor electricity?
No. It is a poor conductor of electricity. It is similar to the conducting properties of plastic.
How does a plastic box help to reduce heat loss?
Plastic is an insulator therefore it is a poor conductor of heat. A plastic box will therefore be able to keep a lot of heat on the inside.

Which plastic is poor conductor of electricity?
all of them
What is a material that is a poor energy conductor?
plastic
How is plastic foam is a poor conductor of thermal energy?
they have a very large amount of air present in them, plastic is a bad conductor
Is wax candle good conductor electricity?
No. It is a poor conductor of electricity. It is similar to the conducting properties of plastic.
Some Examples of poor thermal conductor?
foam plastic rubber
Is the material mica a poor conductor of heat?
mica is a plastice, so it is a poor conductor of heat and electricity. Mica is a mineral, not a plastic. But you're correct about its insulating properties.

What are poor conductor of electerly?
plastic and wood mainly, however metal are good conductors so anything but that mostly....
Is helium a good conductor or poor conductor?
helium is an insulator (poor conductor) of heat
Is plastic or Styrofoam the poorest conductor of heat?
The answer to this question depends on the magic word NIC. NIC is short for non-intercellular. This means that the tiny cells within the foam do not connect with each other. The foam does not soak up lots of water. You can't blow air through it. A plastic foam which is NIC is a very poor conductor of heat - a good insulator. A plastic foam which is intercellular is not a good conductor, but it is nowhere near as poor as NIC foam. Its best use is as a sponge for soaking up water.
