iy's low melting point is useful in atomatic sprinkler systems

modern automatic sprinklers use a glass bulb that is filled with a fluid that boils and expands at a preset temperature. the glass bulb has a small bubble in the fluid. when a fire causes the fluid to boil, it shatters the glass bulb, which is keeping the waterway seal of the sprinkler in place. When the seal is gone, water can flow through the sprinkler orfice, and extinguish the fire. older sprinkler models use a link and lever arrangement, with a link of solder that melts at a preset temperature. The link and levers of the sprinkler mechanically hold the waterway seal of the sprinkler closed. When the link melts, the mechanical seal is gone, and water can flow through the orfice.

No, impurities do not raise the melting point of Stearic Acid, they decrease it. All impurities decrease the melting point of solids.
Titanium and alminium are both useful for these tasks, as they have high melting pointsand don't easily corrode.
Substances become special because they have useful properties. Tungsten has an extremely high melting point, which makes it useful as a filament in incandescent light bulbs. Oxygen supports combustion and metabolism. Glass is valued for being transparent as well as waterproof, strong, and durable. And so forth.

A local yellow pages might be very useful for that. Here is a link to a list of sprinkler vendors in New Mexico: http://www.lawnsprinklers.us/new-mexico.htm

When it snows in certain countries of the world the government sprinkles salt over the snow so that the melting point of the snow decreases melting it more quickly.This is one example where impurities are useful to mankind
For example the melting point.
