Ilaphu le-siliconeKudala isetyenziselwa ukuqina kwayo kunye nokuxhathisa kwamanzi, kodwa abantu abaninzi bayathandabuza ukuba ngaba iyapheleka. Uphando lwakutsha nje lwesihloko, ukubonelela ngokuqonda ezintsha ekuphefumleni zelaphu.
Uphononongo ngabaphandi kwiZiko leMithombo yeNjineli ePhakamileyo ifumene loo ntoIlaphu le-Siliconeinokuphefumla phantsi kweemeko ezithile. Abaphandi bavavanya amalaphu asilicone amalaphu okuphezulu kwaye bafumanise ukuba iilaphu ezincinci zaziphefumla kunezixhobo ezinamalaphu. Baye bafumanisa ukuba ukongeza i-micropores kwilaphu ukuphucula ukuphefumla. Olu phando lunempembelelo ebalulekileyo ekusetyenzisweni kweelaphu ze-silicone kwimpahla yokuphefumla yinto ephambili.
Iziphumo zolu phononongo ziyahambelana namava eembaleki ezininzi kunye nehlosi engaphandle elisebenzisa amalaphu asisicone kwigiya yabo. Abantu abaninzi banika ingxelo yokuba ngelixa ilaphu le-silicone lingasebenziyo, ikwaphefumla kakhulu, ngakumbi xa idalwe ngengqondo engqondweni. Oku kukhokelele ekusetyenzisweni kweelaphu ze-silicone kwiindidi zeIngubo yangaphandle, kubandakanya neejackethi, ibhulukhwe kunye nezihlangu.
Ukongeza ekusetyenzisweni kwabo kwigiya engaphandle, ilaphu le-silicone ifakwe kwihlabathi lefashoni. Abayili bayandaIlaphu le-Siliconekwiqokelelo yabo, enomdla ngokudityaniswa kwabo okhethekileyo, ukumelana kwamanzi kwaye ngoku ukuphefumla. Le meko ibonakala ngakumbi ekunyukeni kwezinto ze-silicone zefatric ye-fangs ezifana neengxowa kunye nee-wallet, ezibonelela ngenye indlela enesitayile kwimpahla yesini.
Ukuphefumla kwelaphu le-silicone ikwabangela umdla kwicandelo lezempilo. Abaphandi baphonononge ukusetyenziswa kwelaphu le-silicone kwimpahla yokufaka izigulana ezinesifo ezithile, apho ukuphefumla kubalulekile kwintuthuzelo kunye nempilo yolusu. Iilaphu ze-Silicone zinokubakho ukuba zombiniamanzi kunye nokuphefumla, ukubangela ukuba ibe yinto enomdla kwimpahla yezonyango kunye negiya yokukhusela.
Ngaphandle kwezi zinto zifunyenweyo, kusekho umda wokuphefumla kokuphefumla zelaphu le-silicne. Kwiimeko ezishushu kakhulu okanye ezinomswakama, iipropathi zamanzi zendwangu zinokuthintela ukuphefumla, kubangela ukungathandeki kumphathi. Ukongeza, ukongeza iingubo ezithile okanye unyango kwilaphu le-silicone linokuchaphazela ukuphefumla, ke ulwakhiwo kunye noyilo lweemveliso ze-silicone malize ziqwalaselwe ngononophelo.
Ngokubanzi, uphando lwakutshanje kunye namava asebenzayo abonisa ukuba, phantsi kweemeko ezifanelekileyo, amalaphu asilicone aphefumlayo. Ukusetyenziswa kwayo kwigiya engaphandle, ifashoni kunye nonyango lwempilo kunokwenzeka ukuba lukhule njengabayili kunye nabavelisi basebenzise ithuba lokudityaniswa kwazo ezodwa. Njengetekhnoloji yelebhu kunye noyilo luqhubeka ukuqhubela phambili, silindele ukubona ukusetyenziswa ngakumbi kokuphefumla kwiilaphu eziphefumlayo kwixesha elizayo.
IXESHA LOKUQALA: NgoFebruwari-19 ukuya ku-2004
