Conductors

The substances that allow heat to pass through them are called conductors of heat. Iron, copper, and aluminium are examples of conductors. All metals are good conductors of heat.

Insulators:

The substances that do not allow heat to pass through them are called poor conductors of heat or insulators. Plastic and wood are examples of insulators.
