You can refill them and I encourage you to do so. This video explains how to refill the pencil, complete with close-ups. Don't throw them away, refill them! Remember, the Paper-Mate Sharpwriter pencil uses 0.7mm lead. Standard Pentel lead will work excellent. The video was recorded with a Sony EVO-210 Video 8 8mm VCR.
Uses of Carbon. Carbon (in the form of coal, which is mainly carbon) is used as a fuel. Graphite is used for pencil tips, high temperature crucibles, dry cells, electrodes and as a lubricant. Diamonds are used in jewelry and â because they are so hard â in industry for cutting, drilling, grinding, and polishing.
Graphite has a layered, planar structure. In each layer, the carbon atoms are arranged in a honeycomb lattice with separation of 0.142 nm, and the distance between planes is 0.335 nm. Atoms in the plane are bonded covalently, with only three of the four potential bonding sites satisfied.raphite is also commonly used in the form of powders, and sticks for the purpose of writing or drawing. Graphite of various hardness or softness results in different qualities and tones when used as an artistic medium.
