Best Answer

Consider a drink with ice in it. Room temperature is warmer than the drink, so just by being in the room (or even worse, in your warm hand) the drink is going to absorb a certain amount of heat energy which tends to increase its temperature. However, any temperature higher than the melting point of water (0o Celsius) is going to melt the ice. And since it takes energy to melt ice, that energy cannot raise the temperature until the ice is all melted.

Any insulator will help keep something cold. This includes but is not limited to winter coats, lard, and wool.

Apart from ice packs inside the cooler it would be the insulation material like foam elite that keeps the inside insulated from the hot ambient air.

Put them in an insulated container. For example a vacuum flask keeps hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold.

I would say that styraphome works pretty well, from the research I have done all these years.
