Insulation is a general term used to describe material that creates barriers for transmission of electricity, heat, moisture, shock or sound between insulated surfaces of adjacent bodies. These materials could be insulating heat, cold, electricity, sound or radiation.

Insulation-trapped moisture or water causes corrosion in insulating bodies like insulated pipes in the process industries affected by corrosion under insulation.
