Graphite ni uburyo bworoshe, bufise ibara ry’umweru canke ryirabura ry’ikintu citwa carbone kizwi kubera imiterere yaco yihariye, nk’ubushobozi bwiza bwo gutwara umuyagankuba n’ubushuhe, ubushobozi bwo gutera amavuta, n’ubushobozi bwo guhangana n’ubushuhe bwinshi-. Iboneka mu buryo busanzwe mu bitandara bihinduka kandi irakoreshwa cane mu nganda, harimwo no gukoreshwa mu mabati, mu bikoresho vy’amashanyarazi, mu bikoresho vyo gutera amavuta no mu bikoresho bishobora gutuma umuriro udatera. Graphite itandukanye n’izindi nzira za carbone nk’iya diama, ikaba ikomeye kubera imiterere yayo itandukanye y’atome.
Ibintu n'imiterere
Ikoreshwa
Ubundi bwoko bwa carbone
Imiterere: Graphite ni allotrope ya carbone, bisobanura ko ari uburyo butandukanye bw’imiterere y’ikintu kimwe.
Ishusho: Atome zayo z’umuyagankuba zitunganijwe mu bipande vy’imirongo itandatu biteye nk’ibipande vy’imirongo itandatu, bikaba vyirundanijwe hejuru y’ibindi, hagati y’ivyo bipande hakaba hariho ubucuti bugoyagoya. Ivyo bituma ivyo bipande bishobora guca ku bindi, bigatuma bimera nk’ibiyoroshe kandi binyerera.
Ibirango nyamukuru: Ni ikintu ciza co gutwara ubushuhe n’umuyagankuba, ntaco gikora, kandi gishobora kwihanganira ubushuhe bwinshi cane.
Uguhingura: Ibaho mu buryo busanzwe biciye mu guhinduka kw’ibikoresho vy’ubutunzi bwa carbone-mu bitandara canke biciye mu guhinduka kw’ibintu bifise carbone n’ibisubizo vy’ubushuhe bw’amazi.
Amabateri: Ikoreshwa mu anode y’amabateri ya litiyumu-iyoni.
Ivyo gutera amavuta: Ubushobozi bwayo bwo kugabanya ugushikana butuma iba igikoresho ciza co gutera amavuta, cane cane mu bikorwa vy’ubushuhe bwinshi-.
Ama electrode n'ibikoresho bishobora gutuma umuriro: Ubushobozi bwayo bwo gutwara ubushuhe n’umuyagankuba bwinshi bituma ari bwiza cane ku bikoresho vy’amashanyarazi, mu gihe ubushobozi bwayo bwo kwihanganira ubushuhe bwinshi ari ngirakamaro mu bikoresho bishobora gusha.
Ibindi bisabwa: Iboneka mu makaramu, mu bikoresho vy’amavuta, mu bikoresho vy’ugutera umuriro, no mu bikoresho vy’ugutera amaferemi.
Graphite na diamant vyose ni ubwoko bwa carbone ariko bifise imiterere itandukanye cane kubera imiterere yavyo y’atome.
Diama: Atome za carbone zikora uruzitiro rukomeye, rufise ibipimo bitatu-, bituma diama ikomera cane.
