What is the best heat insulator?
The best heat insulator is granetino - a chemical plastic. You cannot find it to buy though, you must order it, have it shipped over, and can only buy it in bulk for factories. Carter
Best insulator of heat?
well, I read in the PSLE ultimate science guide that air is the best insulator of heat and silver is the best conductor of heat. However, silver is not used as wires because it is too epensive.
