nonconductor – מילון אנגלי-אנגלי
nonconductor
n.
something which does not conduct
Insulator (electricity)
An
electrical insulator is a material whose internal
electric charges do not flow freely, and therefore make it nearly impossible to conduct an
electric current under the influence of an
electric field. This contrasts with other materials,
semiconductors and
conductors, which conduct electric current more easily. The property that distinguishes an insulator is its
resistivity; insulators have higher resistivity than semiconductors or conductors.
nonconductor
Noun
1. a material such as glass or porcelain with negligible electrical or thermal conductivity
(synonym) insulator, dielectric
(hypernym) material, stuff
(hyponym) bushing
Nonconductor
(n.)
A substance which does not conduct, that is, convey or transmit, heat, electricity, sound, vibration, or the like, or which transmits them with difficulty; an insulator; as, wool is a nonconductor of heat; glass and dry wood are nonconductors of electricity.
