Is a foam coffee cup a conductor or a insulator?

Styrofoam, along with most other expanded plastics, is a very poor insulator of heat and electricity, thereby making a foam coffee cup a very good insulator.


How can you determine if foam is a better insulator than paper?

yes you can test it under a lamp and see the temp. for the foam and paper and if one has the lowest than that's the better insulator!good luck!


Is foam rubber a good insulator?

Foam rubber can be a good insulator due to its cellular structure that traps air pockets, providing thermal insulation. It also has good sound insulation properties, making it useful in dampening noise. However, its insulating effectiveness can vary depending on the specific type and density of the foam rubber.


Is foam the ones for crafts a good heat insulator?

Foam is a good insulator because air is not that good at conducting (meaning that it doesn't easily transport heat or cold) in relation to other materials. As foam consists of many tiny plastic pockets trapped with air it both stops convection and prevents conduction.


Examples of good heat insulator?

styrofoam ,bubble wrap ,polyurethane foam, fleece ,aluminiaum.


Whether plastic foam which contains pockets of air would be a good conductor or a good insulator.?

Plastic foam containing pockets of air is a good insulator. The air pockets hinder the transfer of heat or electricity, making it difficult for these forms of energy to pass through the material. This makes plastic foam with air pockets an effective insulator for keeping things warm or preventing electrical conduction.
