Is a Styrofoam cooler conductor or insulator?
Insulator
Is Styrofoam a good conductor or a good insulator?
Electrical or thermal? Either way, it's an insulator.
Why Styrofoam can be a best insulator?
It's not metal or copper like wires. Metal is an easy conductor of heat. Styrofoam isn't. Therefore making it an insulator. Answered by a fifth grade student
A material that is not a good conductor of heat is a called an?
Insulator, same as for electricity. An example of insulators (of heat) is Styrofoam.
Styrofoam cups are poor conductors of heat?
Polystyrene is a poor conductor of heat; it is largely used as a thermal insulator.
Is styrofoam insulator or conductor?
Styrofoam is an insulator.
Is a Styrofoam cooler conductor or insulator?
Insulator
Is a styrofoam cooler a conductor?
No it is an insulator, since it does not conduct current (as long as it is dry). It would not be my first choice as an insulator since it is flammable, and generates toxic gasses when it is burned.

How well does styrofoam conduct heat?
Yes, styrofoam is full of air cells and air is a good thermal insulator. Styrofoam has poor solvent resistance, and poor hot performance.
Are glasses a conductor or insulator?
Examples of insulators include plastics, Styrofoam, paper, rubber, glass and dry air.
Styrofoam cups are poor conductors of heat?
Polystyrene is a poor conductor of heat; it is largely used as a thermal insulator.
Is a pillow a conductor or insulator?
Insulator.
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.
Why is styrofoam cup a good insulator?
Styrofoam cup is a good insulator because it is coated with foam
