Carbon nanotube model

Balloons are used to construct a large carbon nanotube model, suspended from a frame. This work was inspired by www.balloonmolecules.com.

Clicking a thumbnail on this web page (http://chemistry.beloit.edu/edetc/cineplex/balloons/index2.html) shows a movie of that demonstration.

Assembly from start to finish (steps 1 to 6 combined, 8 MB).
