STRUCTURAL MATERIAL: CARBON FIBER Carbon Fiber is a structural material of graphite which is an allotrope of carbon. Therefore Carbon Fibre consists of carbon atoms in an atomic structure similar to Graphite. Carbon Fibre is composed of filament threads and within these threads are an accumulation of thousands of fine Carbon filaments. A filament has a diameter of approximately 5-10 micrometers. (Madehow‚ 2012) Due to the substantial stability in bonding between Graphite and Carbon Fiber the structure

As humans progressively use more and more oil‚ our supply of oil goes down. The depletion of oil has become a problem that people are addressing constantly. Many alternative forms of energy have been developed but no method has proved totally efficient and economic. However‚ Methanol could prove to be the solution the human race is looking for. Methanol could be used to replace gasoline in our cars for future years to come. Methanol is easy to make because it originates from our trash and biomass

Why life chose Carbon? It is the second most abundant element in the human body-18% of the wet weight. Molecules based on carbon-known as organic molecules because of their occurrence in living matter-constitute the majority of molecules found in living organisms from plants to people. 1 of the 4 special features of carbon is that carbon atoms are able to bond with each other to form extended chains-sharing pairs of electrons with neighbouring carbon atoms which allow the formation of stable covalent

Proyecto: DIOXIDO DE CARBONO Y EL FUEGO (CARBON DIOXIDE FIRE) LA PRESENCIA DE UN GAS QUE APAGA EL FUEGO (THE PRESENCE OF AN OFF GAS TO THE FIRE) INTRODUCTION This science project shows that not all gases are the cause of the fire‚ there are several gases that cause the flame is extinguished. Therefore we developed the first fire extinguisher ready and try to prove one of the most important gases in our planet’s carbon dioxide. PROBLEM It is possible that the presence

allotropic forms of Carbon (Diamond and Graphite) Graphite and Diamond both are formed from carbon (two allotropic forms of carbon). Though they have similar constituent element‚ they differ a lot in their properties. Diamond is a good thermal conductor but a bad electrical conductor‚ while graphite is a bad thermal conductor but a good electrical conductor. This is one example of their property difference. The difference in their properties arises because of different arrangement of carbon atoms present

primarily from the sun. It generally enters the system through photosynthesis‚ a process that also captures carbon from the atmosphere. By feeding on plants and on one another‚ animals play an important role in the movement of matter and energy through the system. They also influence the quantity of plant and microbial biomass present. By breaking down dead organic matter‚ decomposers release carbon back to the atmosphere and facilitate nutrient cycling by converting nutrients stored in dead biomass back

and menial task. But the truth is; every tree makes a difference. One of the great functions each tree offers‚ besides its aesthetic addition‚ is the sequestering of CO2‚ carbon dioxide. To elaborate this importance‚ it is fair to paint the big picture. Heat is trapped in the earth’s atmosphere due to high levels of carbon dioxide (CO2) and other heat trapping gases which ultimately prohibit the heat from being released into space. This is what has caused the virulent phenomenon call “Greenhouse

Carbon nanotube 1 Carbon nanotube Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are allotropes of carbon with a cylindrical nanostructure. Nanotubes have been constructed with [1] length-to-diameter ratio of up to 132‚000‚000:1‚ significantly larger than for any other material. These cylindrical carbon molecules have unusual properties‚ which are valuable for nanotechnology‚ electronics‚ optics and other fields of materials science and technology. In particular‚ owing to their extraordinary thermal conductivity
