Carbon nanotube F007 / 9910
Buckytube. Molecular model of part of the cage structure of a bucky- or nanotube. The spheres represent carbon atoms. In this structure hundreds of atoms form hexagon shapes along a tube. This molecule is one of a class of carbon molecules called fullerenes, discovered in 1985. They have novel physical and chemical properties which can be exploited to make new catalysts, lubricants and superconductors

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a carbon nanotube, specifically the F007/9910 Buckytube. The molecular model depicted here represents a portion of the cage-like structure of this remarkable nanotube, with each sphere symbolizing a carbon atom. Along the length of the tube, hundreds of atoms come together to form hexagon shapes, creating an awe-inspiring pattern. Discovered in 1985, fullerenes like this one belong to a class of carbon molecules that possess extraordinary physical and chemical properties. Scientists have harnessed these unique characteristics to develop new catalysts, lubricants, and superconductors. This artwork serves as both an illustration and an educational tool for those interested in chemistry and nanotechnology. Against a pristine white background, this monochromatic image emphasizes the complexity and precision inherent in organic chemistry. The bonds between atoms are clearly visible, highlighting their crucial role in forming stable compounds. Created using computer graphics techniques by PASIEKA/SCIENCE PHOTO LIBRARY (not affiliated with any company), this artistic representation invites viewers into the fascinating world of molecular structures. Whether you're fascinated by science or simply appreciate aesthetic beauty merged with scientific concepts, this print is sure to captivate your imagination.
