Based on the ability of the material to conduct electricity, materials are classified into conductors and insulators.

Conductors: These materials allow the free flow of electrons from one particle to another. 

• Examples of conductors : Human body, aqueous solutions of salts and metals like iron, silver and gold.

Insulators: Insulators are materials that restrict the free flow of electrons from one particle to another. 

• Examples of Insulator : Plastic, Wood and Glass.
