C60 Buckballs as a lubricant
Numéro d’image : 11522732
| Computer graphics space-filling representation of the potential application of Buckminsterfullerene (C60),a novel form of carbon,as a lubricant. The blue "Buckyballs" are sandwiched between two metal surfaces. The molecule was first described by Huffman et al in 1990 & consists of 60 carbon atoms packed in an icosahedral pattern similar to that of a panelled football. It derives its name from Richard Buckminster Fuller,the architect & engineer who utilised icosahedral geometry in his geodesic domes. Subsequent research has provided a family of fullerenes (Buckyballs) including C70 & the so-called giant fullerenes,C240,C540 & C960 | |
