Build scaled down molecular models of graphite, diamond, ice, wurtzite, sphalerite, fluorite, NaCl, and all 7 Bravais lattices with the Indigo® 68848W crystal lattice structure class set. Designed for geophysics, X-ray diffraction, solid state chemistry, and materials science courses where three-dimensional crystallographic reasoning is essential.
The Indigo® 68848W crystal lattice structure class set is designed for understanding crystal symmetry at a structural level. These model structures give a three dimensional, physical presence to space and point groups that students can rotate and compare. Or, build just their individual unit cells for a side-by-side comparison. These structures include cubic, hexagonal, tetragonal, and orthorhombic crystal systems, & offer a comprehensive introduction to crystallographic diversity.
Note that here are thousands of crystals that can be made, so including instructions is not practical. The tray used in the image is NOT included.
The Indigo® 68848W Class Crystal Lattices Molecular Model Set allows you to build versions of many common lattices. It is unique in its having geometries of 8 & 12 coordinate atoms that show metallic & solid state structures that are not available with any other molecular modelling system.
