The graphite studied here has natural (Bernal) stacking, but there is another stable allotrope of graphite -- rhombohedral.

These different forms are known as allotropes. Ozone is an allotrope of oxygen, for example, while graphite and diamond are both allotropes of carbon. A section of the periodic table.

Its X-ray structure is shown below. This molecule is notable both as one of the very few macrocyclic polyphenylenes known (polyphenylenes are molecules composed entirely of substituted phenyl groups) ...

Benzene: History fasts forwards The debate over the cumulenic and polyyinic bonding in cyclocarbons echoes similar discussions over the bonding in benzene C 6 H 6 – a ring of six carbon atoms like the ...

The result, they say, is a structure more stable than graphite at pressures above 14 GPa and, like diamond, consisting entirely of atoms linked together by sp3 bonds.

The name “black nitrogen” is from similar allotrope black phosphorus, which American Elements describes as “a layered semiconducting material similar in appearance to graphite with numerous ...

A body-centered tetragonal carbon (bct-carbon) allotrope has been predicted to be a transparent carbon polymorph obtained under pressure. The structural transition pathways from graphite to diamond, M ...
