Isetshenziswa kabanzi ekwenzeni izinto zamakhemikhali nezensimbi.Ama-alloys okuhola asetshenziswa njengama-bearings, igolide elithathekayo, i-solder nokunye.Amabhulokhi omthofu ayinsimbi ebuthakathaka ethambile futhi eyi-ductile, futhi ayinsimbi esindayo.Ngommese ungasikwa, umthofu uyinsimbi esindayo emhlophe enombala oluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka, indawo encibilikayo ingu-327.502 °C, indawo abilayo ngu-1740 °C, ukuminyana kungu-11.3437 g/cm³, ukuqina ngu-1.5, ukuthungwa okuthambile, amandla amancane aqinile, kanye nenani eliphansi, ngakho-ke ibhulokhi yokuhola / isitini sokuhola sivame ukusetshenziselwa ukuphikisa.
Umthofu uyinto ebalulekile ngoba uhlukanisa imisebe ye-ionizing eyingozi, ngakho izitini zomthofu zisetshenziswa ezimbonini zenuzi, zezokwelapha nezobunjiniyela njengezingxenye zokuvikela umthofu zezindonga eziwugqinsi ezingama-50mm no-100 mm ukuze zivikele emisebeni ye-ionizing.Izitini zomthofu ngokuyisisekelo ziyizitini eziwunxande ezinamakhono okuhlangana.Isetshenziswa kakhulu ekwenzeni izindonga ezivikelayo ezindaweni noma izinqubo lapho amandla emisebe ephakeme kakhulu.
Izitini zomthofu ziyisixazululo esikahle sezimo zesikhashana noma ezihlala njalo zokuvikela/isitoreji.Izitini zomthofu kulula ukunqwabelanisa, ukusombuluka, nokusebenzisa kabusha ukuze uvikeleke kakhulu.Izitini zomthofu zenziwe ngomthofu wekhwalithi ephezulu kakhulu, zinokuqina okujwayelekile, futhi ingaphezulu liyisicaba futhi libushelelezi, okwenza ukufakwa kwe-flush ngokuphelele ngisho nasema-engeli abukhali angakwesokudla.Banikeza isivikelo emisebeni enemisebe elabhorethri kanye nendawo yokusebenza (ukuhlanganiswa kodonga).Amabhulokhi okuhola axhumene enza kube lula ukumisa, ukuguqula nokufaka kabusha izindonga ezivikelayo namagumbi avikelekile anoma yimuphi usayizi.
Selokhu yasungulwa, imboni yethu ibilokhu ithuthukisa imikhiqizo esezingeni lomhlaba ngokulandela umgomo wekhwalithi kuqala.Imikhiqizo yethu izuze idumela elihle kakhulu embonini kanye nokwethenjwa okubalulekile phakathi kwamakhasimende amasha namadala..
