An insulator should have low thermal conductivity, high resistance to heat flow, and often a porous structure. It should NOT have high thermal conductivity or less resistance to heat flow.

Low thermal conductivity: This is crucial because materials with low thermal conductivity prevent the flow of heat, making them effective insulators, heat insulators.
