Is a pot holder a conductor or an insulator?

Answer (2)

Insulator because it does not let heat pass through

A pot holder is primarily an insulator, made from materials like fabric or silicone, which prevents heat transfer and protects hands from burns. Insulators restrict heat flow, while good conductors, like metals, allow heat to pass through. The design of pot holders is intentional to ensure safety when handling hot pots.
