Lapho uqhathanisa ukuqhutshwa kukagesi kwe-aluminium nethusi, izici eziningana okufanele zicatshangelwe, okuhlanganisa izakhiwo zabo zikagesi ezingaphakathi, isisindo, izindleko, kanye nezicelo ezivamile. Nasi isiqhathaniso esinemininingwane:

I-Electric Conductivity

• Ithusi: I-Copper ine- conductivity kagesi cishe 5.96×10⁷$\text{S/m}$ (siemens imitha ngayinye). Kuyindinganiso abanye abaqhubi bakalwa ngayo futhi banikezwe i-conductivity yayo 100% I-International Annealed Copper Standard (I-IACS).
• I-Aluminium: I-Aluminium ine-conductivity kagesi engaba ngu-3.77×10⁷$\text{S/m}$, okungaba cishe 63% lokho kwe-IACS yethusi.

Isisindo kanye Ukuminyana

• Ithusi: I ukuminyana zethusi imayelana 8.96 g/cm³. Lokhu kwenza ithusi libe nzima uma liqhathaniswa ne-aluminium.
• I-Aluminium: I ukuminyana kwe-aluminium iseduze 2.7 g/cm³. I-Aluminium ilula kakhulu, cishe ingxenye eyodwa kwezintathu yesisindo sethusi.

Amandla kanye Nezakhiwo Zemishini

• Ithusi: I-Copper inamandla futhi ihlala isikhathi eside ngaphansi kokucindezeleka kwemishini futhi ingamelana nemithwalo ephakeme ngaphandle kokuguqulwa.
• I-Aluminium: I-Aluminium ithambile kakhulu futhi ayijwayele ukuphuka kodwa inamandla aphansi okunyakazisa uma iqhathaniswa nethusi.

Izindleko

• Ithusi: Ngokuvamile, ithusi libiza kakhulu ngenxa yesidingo sayo esiphezulu kanye nezakhiwo zikagesi eziphakeme.
• I-Aluminium: I-Aluminium ayibizi kakhulu futhi iningi kakhulu, okwenza kube enye indlela engabizi kakhulu ezinhlelweni eziningi.

Izinhlelo zokusebenza

• Ithusi: Isetshenziswa kakhulu kuzintambo zikagesi, izinjini, ama-transformer, kanye nezinhlelo zokuphehla ugesi ngenxa yokuguquguquka kwayo okuhle kakhulu nokuqina kwayo.
• I-Aluminium: Okuvame ukusetshenziswa emigqeni yokudlulisa amandla kanye nokusabalalisa, lapho isisindo sayo esilula singanciphisa kakhulu izindleko zokusekela izakhiwo.

Ukucatshangelwa Okuwusizo

• Usayizi Nesisindo Sokuziphatha Okulinganayo: Ukuze kuzuzwe conductivity efanayo kagesi njengethusi, i-aluminium conductor kufanele ibe nendawo enkulu ephambanayo. Nokho, ngisho nangosayizi omkhulu, isisindo sesisonke samakhondaktha e-aluminium sisephansi kunesamakhondaktha ethusi.
• Ukumelana Nokugqwala: I-Aluminium yenza ungqimba lwe-oxide oluvikelayo oluyenza imelane nokugqwala. Ithusi lingagqwala, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni ezithile, kodwa lokhu kuvame ukulawulwa ngezingubo ezifanele kanye nokwelashwa.
• Ukuthembeka Kokuxhumana: I-Aluminium requires careful handling to ensure secure connections, njengoba ingakhula futhi ifinyeze ngaphezu kwethusi ngokushintsha kwezinga lokushisa, okungaholela ekuxhumekeni okuxekethile ngokuhamba kwesikhathi. Izixhumi ezikhethekile nezindlela zokufaka zisetshenziselwa ukunciphisa lokhu.
