Why will insulators affect how long a test tube of hot water stays hot? Background Information I know that there are many different ways of insulating this test tube‚ shiny foil can be used because it’s a poor emitter of radiation and it will reflect escaping heat by reflecting‚ because this method is used in flasks to keep hot drinks warm. Though it is a good conductor so will lose heat through to surfaces its touching but it shouldn’t matter because it will be touching air and glass which both
