Product Overview:

Polylab Molecular Model Set – Diamond is an essential educational tool for visually demonstrating the unique tetrahedral lattice of carbon atoms that gives diamond its exceptional hardness. Crafted from high-quality, color-coded plastic components, this Diamond Model Set accurately represents how each carbon atom bonds to four others in a continuous three-dimensional network.

Designed for easy assembly, the kit includes precisely molded carbon atom balls and sturdy connectors that lock securely in place, forming a stable crystal lattice that can be handled during classroom demonstrations. This hands-on model helps students grasp how the tetrahedral bonding arrangement results in diamond’s remarkable physical properties.

Perfect for high school and university chemistry classes, this Diamond Molecular Model supports lessons on carbon allotropes, covalent bonding, and solid-state structures. It’s also valuable for explaining differences between diamond and other forms of carbon like graphite or fullerenes.

The model comes neatly packed in a durable storage box for safe keeping and repeated use. Combine your Diamond Model with other Polylab Molecular Model Sets for a comprehensive collection covering graphite, buckminsterfullerene, ionic lattices, and complex molecules.
