Is cotton clothing a insulator or a conductor?

Answer 1

Short answer: No

Long answer: I assume you are wondering this on a heat basis, rather than an electrical one. Things can be either conductors or insulators. Conductors conduct heat well, like copper, and insulators don't conduct heat, like cotton.

This is due to the moleules being closer together, as in metal solids, which means the heat waves travelling through them do not diminish so quickly.

Answer 2

Cotton is a natural insulator because it traps air within its fibers, creating a barrier against heat transfer. This property makes cotton clothing comfortable to wear in both warm and cool temperatures.

Answer 3

its an insulator

Answer 4

insulator
