• Thermal conductivity in physics and chemistry is a
property of a material that indicates the ability of
a material to transfer heat. The thermal
conductivity of a substance is measured in
watts/meter/kelvin.
• In general, good conductors of electricity
(metals like copper, aluminum, gold, and
silver) are also good heat conductors, whereas
insulators of electricity (wood, plastic, and
rubber) are poor heat conductors
• Metals That Conduct Heat the Best
• Silver. Silver is one of the best metals for
conducting heat because it works as a powerful
reflector. ...
• Copper. Copper is yet another good conductor of
heat because it absorbs heat quickly and holds it
for a long period of time. ...
• Aluminum. ...
• Brass.
- But what makes metals - electrons that are not
good conductors of heat? bounded to the atoms.
This is closely related to These electrons are free
the atomic structure of to move around within
metals. Metals have free the metal, colliding with
the metal atoms and
transferring heat to them
efficiently.
 - Stainless Steel demonstrated the most thermal
inertia, Resistance to temperature change and
aluminum the lowest. So if you want to have
food cooking after the gas is turned off, stainless
steel is the best material.
• What are the worst thermal conductors?
• Plastic, Rubber and Asbestos are worst
conductors of heat. because they don't have a
proper structure in place. All these materials
don't have a proper lattice structure.
