Thermal Insulators Investigation

We choose materials for their PROPERTIES. Some materials allow heat to travel through them easily. These are called THERMAL CONDUCTORS.

Some materials, THERMAL INSULATORS, are chosen because they SLOW DOWN the movement of heat from a warm place to a cooler place.

Winter clothes slow down the loss of heat from our bodies (warm place) into the air around us (cooler place).

With that in mind let's get the investigation going!
