How do the different types of insulators affect the temperature of the can Out of Steel Wool Aluminum Foil Cotton and Bubble Wrap which one would be the best insulator?

What happens when you put steel wool in a jar?
Steel wool is not soluble in water, neither can it absorb water but can get wet so if you take the steel wool out of the water the wet (due to capillary action and surface tension) steel wool will weigh more than dry steel wool. Then the steel wool will rust (and the mass will increase because oxygen unites with iron to form the rust).
