Substance that does not transmit certain forms of energy, such as heat (thermal insulator), sound (acoustic insulator) or electricity (electrical insulator)
A block of wood is used as an insulator under the jar.
2
The wood is used for posts, cross-ties, wagon hubs, and insulator pins.
3
Which is to say, it's an insulator good enough for spacecraft.
4
Those won't work because the plastic will act as an insulator.
5
They race upward until they reach the insulator, which they cannot flow through.
1
Different relative abundance of a Rikenellaceae genus contributed to separate clustering of the isolator and IVC communities.
2
The fan, if installed correctly, will be wired with an isolator to the light switch and have a 15 minute over-run.
3
Wellington Hospital has put its 16 racks of servers on base isolators.
4
He said using base isolators would give the building another 100 years of seismic resilience.
5
Isolators have been used for commercial buildings for many years but have been too expensive to use on homes until now.
1
Dow makes Styrofoam, a key insulationmaterial used in home and commercial construction.
2
Roofing tiles and insulationmaterial was scattered over neighbouring properties.
3
Corrugated iron roofing, loft insulationmaterial, soggy wood and an endless black, unidentifiable mulch, still smoking.
4
To be fair, I should mention that my father worked for a company that manufactured and installed insulationmaterial.
5
Savings come primarily from the use of a new lightweight laminated windshield, lighter insulationmaterial, and aerodynamically optimized forged aluminum wheels.

The Vacuum Insulation Panel (VIP), regarded as the most promising high-performance thermalinsulationmaterial, still has application limitations because of its high cost.
