Bucky Ball Model Manufacturer,Supplier and Exporter in India
Product Code : SCL-SSLDK-11422
Description:
The Bucky Ball Model by Educational Instruments is a high-precision, durable acrylic molecular model representing the advanced structure of Carbon-60 (C60), scientifically known as Buckminsterfullerene.
This model distinctively features the arrangement of sixty carbon atoms forming a hollow spherical cage.
It is an essential, three-dimensional teaching tool that visually communicates the exceptional geometric symmetry of the fullerene structure, a critical concept in nanotechnology, organic chemistry, and advanced material science.
The model is mounted for stable tabletop display.
Educators use it to physically rotate the structure, highlighting the repeating patterns of pentagons and hexagons (the truncated icosahedron shape) that define the Buckminsterfullerene architecture.
