Yes fabric can be an insulator. Different types of fabric work better than others though. For example wool works really well as an insulator and is good to wear outdoors in the winter. Cotton is another fairly good fabric insulator.

What material has resistance between a conductor and a insulator?

Semiconductors have resistance levels between that of conductors and insulators. They conduct electricity better than insulators but not as well as conductors, making them useful in electronic devices. Examples include silicon and germanium.

Is linen a good insulator?

Linen is not a particularly good insulator as it is a lightweight and breathable fabric that allows air to flow easily. It is better suited for warm weather clothing as it helps keep the body cool by allowing heat to escape.

Why does warm water clean better than cold water?

Warm water is a better cleaner because cold water fuses the stain even more so to the fabric, where as warm water draws the stain away from said fabric.


Is water or polystyrene a better insulator?

Polystyrene is a better insulator than water because it traps air molecules within its structure, creating a barrier to prevent heat transfer. Water, on the other hand, is a good conductor of heat and can easily transfer heat energy.
