In this paper we studied different insulating materials, their properties and uses. Insulating materials are materials that provide insulation or reduce the transfer of heat between objects. Heat transfer can be a problem in many industries where two objects are in contact at different temperatures. Although heat flow between these two objects is inevitable, insulating materials can be used to reduce the transfer of heat. These materials work by reducing thermal conduction or by reflecting rather than absorbing thermal radiation.
