Ibirahuri vyinshi vy’iborosilicate birafise ivyiza vyinshi bihambaye. Igiharuro caco c’ukwaguka cane gituma ikirahuri gishobora kuguma gihagaze mbere no mu bidukikije bifise itandukaniro rinini cane ry’ubushuhe. Nk’akarorero, ikirahuri ntikizomena naho coca kizuzwa amazi ashushe amaze gukurwa mu gitereko. Ubwo bwoko bw’igicuruzwa c’ibirahuri burashobora guhangana n’ubushuhe kuva kuri -20 degrees gushika ku 130 degrees. Yaba ari ibikoresho vy’ibirahuri vy’ibara rimwe canke micro-onde, birashobora gukoreshwa ataco bivuze ku bijanye n’ugusambuka.
Ikindi, amazi n’ibirahuri vyinshi vy’ibirahuri vyinshi bishika ku rugero rwa 1, ubushobozi bwo guhangana na alkali ni urugero A, kandi ibirimwo ibintu bishobora gutera ingorane biri munsi ya 0,1%, bikaba bituma ari amahitamwo meza ku mazi adatekanye. Naho ubushuhe bwinshi {{3}== amataratara ashobora gukoreshwa cane ku isoko ry’isoko ry’ibintu vyinshi, uburyo nyabwo burashobora guhinduka, kandi abaguzi barakeneye kwiyubara igihe bahitamwo.
