Cloth is a good insulator because its fibers trap air pockets, which reduces heat transfer through conduction and convection. Additionally, cloth is often thick and dense, which further hinders the movement of heat.
Two materials that act as good insulators are rubber and wool. Rubber is a good insulator because it has a high resistance to electrical current, while wool is a good insulator because of its ability to trap air and prevent heat transfer.
Good insulators include glass, styrofoam, plastic, wood, rubber, cloth, air, glass, and etc. It really depends on what you want to use it for. For example, fiberglass or styrofoam works the best as heat insulators. And rubber or glass as electric insulators.
Conductors are good energy carriers they allow energy to pass through them easily examples are steel,metals and cooper. Insulators do not allow energy (or heat) to pass through them easily such examples are wood oven mitts and cloth. ..... unless the person asking the question was referring to electricity. I dont think wood, oven mitts and cloth would be good examples for electrical insulators, as they are susceptible to collecting moisture, which is an electrical carrier.
Normal cloth made of typical natural fibers are good insulators. In fact, cloth was widely used to insulate electric wires for a while.
Rubber, Styrofoam, air pockets, cloth, plastic
plastic, wood, cloth
A material or an object that does not easily allow heat, electricity, light, or sound to pass through it. Air, cloth and rubber are good electrical insulators; feathers and wool make good thermal insulators.
Some insulators are plastic, glass, cloth, sand, rubber, wood, paper and dry air.
Usually nonmetals. Rubber, plastic, wood, cloth, paper, Styrofoam, tinfoil (to reflect the heat.)The most common insulator for electricity is plastic.

Cotton cloth, newspaper, and strofoam
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.
No, it is an example of an insulator and it is not an example of conductors.
Normal cloth made of typical natural fibers are good insulators. In fact, cloth was widely used to insulate electric wires for a while.
There are a number of materials that make good thermal insulators. Blankets and pockets of air make good thermal insulators for example.
