Graphite and Its Awesome Properties
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 18 ก.ค. 2016
- Graphite is one of the many interesting forms of carbon. And carbon I love! It morphs into coal, diamond, graphite, graphene, fullerenes, nanotubes, buckyballs and more, all with their own set of fantastic properties. Except for CO2, that causes global warming. But graphite is awesome!

"Later British tried to fix it by eliminating natives."
Which they failed
Here we succeded. We had the "campaing to the desert" around 1860 or so where the militia went to the south part of the country (we dont have desserts so... the name is dumb) and exterminared most of the natives and stole the lands.
Btw they are still mostly empty 😱
And later some Soviets in British accent made good acting with graphite.
They they tried to teach everyone "modesty" & "humanity"

-Mehdi Sadaghdar 2016
Nuno Penim it doesn't matter if there's lighter fluid bottle there or not, they're still set on fire because there made out of cotton and polyester and nylon so they're still gonna set on fire if you put fluid on it or not. Trust me I've set myself on fire using those gloves
Mister SisterFister those goggles he had on block a lot of light so he couldn't see the fire
Mister SisterFister hi
4:24 I love how you can hear the "fwoomp" of the glove as it spontaneously catches on fire when he points at the molten copper.
I love how this guy is so knowledgable on the art of electricity yet still shocks himself constantly
He is so knwoledgable to know exactly how much he can shock himself intentionally for Edutainment Purposes, without actually endangering himself. That's a good Way to teach the Dangers of Electricity.
Little Edit: He gets the occasional unintended Shock every now and then too, where his Reaction differs noticably. And he really endangered himself with the one Million Subscriber Jacob's Ladder.
@@Genius_at_Work Yep. About 3/4 of the time he knows exactly what's going to happen... And that last 1/4 is knowing what he can afford to be genuinely careless around. He's really a very talented entertainer, educator, and electrical engineer. Lots of hard work going into these videos.
Just funny

I'm a welder, and we use carbon rods coated with copper for air arc gouging. Because the Carbon can withstand high temps, the steel becomes molten. Then you introduce a high pressure air stream that causes rapid oxydization that blows a gouge right into steel. It's super loud, and creates a huge amount of toxic fumes too.
What is the source of the toxic fumes? Burning metal or oxides Burning?
@TheDerpy Kitty CO always has a clean scent lol
It is so therapeutic though, I love gouging and watching the molten metal just cut away like butter
It's pretty cool, but it always seems like you're in a tight spot when gouging so no matter where you direct the air, you're getting showered in sparks... and holy hell is it loud
Funny how ar the end of the video, where he's melting the copper, it sounds exactly like it

Graphite has many applications, from pencils, to DC motor brushes, to some traces on electronics, to battery batter carbon rods and allowing a fast boom in reactors.

I'm here to make diy conductive paint with it, mod podge, and a tiny amount of distilled water. Just hunting for the best graphite

This guy is hilarious, safety third. Subscribed
you know, the thing I love about using graphite rods when heating things with an arc (like in an arc furnace) is that the graphite basically vaporizes and burns into CO2 in the air, essentially making a flame that burns and probably makes the arc even hotter, and larger.
That moment when the "safety-gloves" caught on fire XD.
garden gloves bruh
theSalmonMan XD I know, it's just liked how that fire appeared out of nowhere straight from a cartoon.
When he was melting the copper wire, it's because there was some wax on the carbon rod, that got soaked into the glove. Was is very flammable, and is why it made his "glove" burst into flames.
I was wearing practically the same type of glove when i accidentaly touched some cca 600°C aluminium rod. Piece of glove turned into charcoal and it didn't evne have time to catch on fire. :D

When you were touching together the two graphite electrodes, the way they burnt up and made a squeaking noise suddenly reminded me if a metal fabrication process known as air carbon arc (ACA). You use a roughly 3/8" carbon electrode with compressed air and like 300 amps DC to just blow big chunks of molten metal in your steel.
Suddenly carbon arc welding, and old carbon rod burning spotlights make so much more sense. 😳

When I saw those graphite rods I remembered tkor arc furnance rip buddy
Graphite brushes can be made conductive in the long direction and non conducive in the short direction to prevent arcing when commutator segments pass over them. That is totally amazing.
Love the Native American explanation.
Yes!!! Do you know how annoying that is to be called Indian when I am native americannnnnnn!!!!!!!!

They assumed since it does the same thing it must also be an Indian
in Brazil we call natives índio, and actual indians we call indiano.

I agree. I avoided his stuff for the longest time cuz I saw a compilation of him hurting himself and just thought he was some random idiot who didn't know anything about electricity or safety. But after watching a few more and learning more about him, I can see he's merely playing a character and is much smarter than a lot of these videos might imply.
The videos are silly indeed but in a way that requires a sharp wit and good sense of humor. I love this guy. :)
