Pencils are typically made up of a combination of wood (such as cedar), graphite or a graphite-clay mix for the core, a metal ferrule to hold the eraser, and an eraser on the end. Some pencils may also have a lacquer coating for aesthetics.
Pencils are no longer made with lead. They are made with a mixture of graphite and clay. This combination produces the "lead" in modern pencils.
No, pencils are not made out of lead. They are made from a combination of graphite and clay. Lead was used in early pencils, but its toxic nature led to the transition to graphite.
Pencils today are typically made of a graphite (or a similar material) core surrounded by a wooden casing, often cedar. The graphite core is a mixture of graphite and clay, which determines the hardness of the pencil lead. The casing is usually hexagonal in shape to prevent rolling.
Pencils are typically made of graphite mixed with clay, which is encased in a wooden casing. The graphite-clay mixture determines the pencil's hardness or softness, while the wood casing provides structure and support for the lead. Additionally, pencils may have an eraser at one end made of rubber or synthetic materials.
It is called "lead" because the original pencils were made from soft lead. However lead is a toxic heavy metal.Modern pencil "lead" is made of graphite and a binder. The most common binders are clay or plastic resin. This is completely nontoxic and the hardness can be precisely controlled to meet the requirements of different users.
all pencils are made up of graphite
there is no answer no pencils can be made in a sec Machine made pencils can be produced at more than one per second. Look up a pencil manufacturer. Across the world probably hundreds of pencils a second are being produced.
pencils
LED pencils are not a common term. However, traditional pencils are typically made of a wooden barrel, graphite (a form of carbon), clay, and a binder. The quality and composition of these materials can vary based on the specific brand and type of pencil.
Why, yes. Pencils was made in the U.S.
There are certain parts of a pencil that are renewable:the rubber eraser,the wood of the pencil,the led,and the metal.
Electricity is not made by pencils: Electricity can pass through pencils since they are made using graphite which is a good conductor.
You are using rock.
Pencils are no longer made with lead. They are made with a mixture of graphite and clay. This combination produces the "lead" in modern pencils.
they are mechanical pencils
yes,because pencils are made out of woood
The lead in pencils are not made out of lead, as is common belief. Pencil lead is made out of graphite.
