these are excellent insulators.....
Insulate the thermos with a very low heat-conducting material. Low density objects such as ceramic or foam are typically good insulators.
Heat, cold, pollution
the answer is a Thermos because it is made with insulators.
plastic, paper, wood, cardboard, and rubber are all good insulators
Thermos jugs are just very good insulators. Just like your house, they're designed to keep one or the other of extreme temperatures away from the inside of the jug ...and vice versa. FriPilot
Good thermos insulators typically include materials like vacuum-sealed glass, stainless steel, and foam. Vacuum insulation is particularly effective as it eliminates air between layers, reducing heat transfer. Additionally, materials like neoprene and rubber are used in external layers to provide further insulation and protection. These materials help maintain the temperature of the contents, keeping liquids hot or cold for extended periods.
Can be, if the vacuum is good. In glass thermos if the glass is not broken it is okay. In steel thermos if the vacuum has not been lost it will be. You can test a steel thermos by simply filling it with boiling water, if the outside of the thermos becomes hot the vacuum has been lost and one will need a new thermos.

Vacuum insulation is a feature of a thermos that does not limit heat flow. By creating a vacuum between the inner and outer walls of the thermos, heat transfer through conduction and convection is minimized, allowing liquids to maintain their temperature for longer periods.
The most heat loss in a thermos bottle occurs through conduction, convection, and radiation. It mainly happens at the opening of the thermos bottle where there is direct contact with the surrounding environment, as well as through the materials used in the construction of the bottle that are not efficient insulators.
A thermos is only good because of the material it is made with. A thicker material will keep whatever is inside cold or warm longer.
Plastics are a good electrical insulators because they are insulators. Electricity could not pass through them unlike copper. Another good example of insulators is rubber.
