Bucky Ball 
 Buckminsterfullerene (IUPAC name (C60- 
Ih)[5,6]fullerene) is the smallest fullerene in 
which no two pentagons share an edge. It is 
also the most common in terms of natural 
occurrence, as it can often be found in soot. 
 The structure of C60 is a truncated T=3 
icosahedron, which resembles a soccer ball 
of the type made of hexagons and 
pentagons, with a carbon atom at the 
corners of each hexagon and a bond along 
each edge. 
 The diameter of a C60 molecule is about 1 
nanometer (nm). 
 From AIDS medicines to superconductors to 
flat-screen TVs, a wide range of medical 
and industrial uses are envisioned for the 
buckminsterfullerene, an incredibly strong 
soccer-ball-shaped molecule that is the third 
form of carbon after diamond and graphite.

Bucky Tube 
 The strength and flexibility of carbon 
nanotubes makes them of potential 
use in controlling other nanoscale 
structures, which suggests they will 
have an important role in 
nanotechnology engineering. 
 The highest tensile strength an 
individual multi-walled carbon 
nanotube has been tested to be is 
63 GPa. 
 Carbon nanotubes have already been 
used as composite fibers in polymers 
to improve the mechanical, thermal 
and electrical properties of the bulk 
product. 
 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_nanotube
Bucky Egg 
 An egg-shaped fullerene, or 
"buckyball egg" has been made and 
characterized by chemists at UC 
Davis, Virginia Tech and Emory and 
Henry College, Va. The unexpected 
discovery opens new possibilities for 
structures for fullerenes, which 
could have a wide range of uses. 
 Beavers started to map out the 
structure, she found two pentagons 
next to each other, making the 
pointy end of the egg. Initially she 
thought that the results were a 
mistake, but she showed the data to 
Marilyn Olmstead, an expert on X-ray 
crystallography, and they 
decided that the results were real. 
The egg contains a molecule of 
triterbium nitride inside.
