Ikusasa le-nickel ku-LME likhuphuke izinsuku ezimbili zilandelana, livale izolo ngo-$21,945/t.
I-Carbon steel iyingxube yekhabhoni nensimbi enekhabhoni efika ku-2.1% ngobuningi.Ukwandisa okuqukethwe kwekhabhoni kwandisa ubulukhuni namandla ensimbi, kodwa kunciphisa i-ductility.I-Carbon steel inezindawo ezinhle mayelana nokuqina namandla futhi ishibhile kunezinye izinsimbi.
Amakhoyili namapheshana ekhabhoni abandayo aginqika akhiqizwa kusetshenziswa inqubo yokukhiqiza eguquguqukayo futhi asetshenziswa kakhulu ezimotweni, emishinini yokuwasha, eziqandisini, ezintweni zikagesi nasezinsizeni zasehhovisi zensimbi.Ngokushintsha iphesenti le-carbon steel, kungenzeka ukukhiqiza insimbi enezakhiwo ezahlukene.Ngokuvamile, okuqukethwe kwekhabhoni ephezulu ensimbi kwenza insimbi ibe nzima, ibe brittle, futhi ibe ne-ductile encane.
