Fun science: Nanotubes, fullerene and graphene
thingiverse
How to show the structure of some carbon structures to pupils? One option is to use 3D printed model :-). This set includes: nanotube(6,6), nanotube(8,3), nanotube(10,0), fullerene C60, graphene. The models carbon diameter is 10 mm (the size is "compatible" with this molecular set: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2251404). This makes it possible to compare different structures (molecules). In the filese there are also models in molecular PDB format (for direct viewing on tablets, smart phones, computers - in molecular viewers like iMolview). More educational 3D models can be found also on our website http://www.e-mole.cz/3d-model.
With this file you will be able to print Fun science: Nanotubes, fullerene and graphene with your 3D printer. Click on the button and save the file on your computer to work, edit or customize your design. You can also find more 3D designs for printers on Fun science: Nanotubes, fullerene and graphene.
