Crystal Model Set PE LDPE

A Crystal Model Set (PE) typically refers to an educational molecular model set used to demonstrate the crystal structures of solids in chemistry and material science. The PE (Polyethylene) in the name indicates that the connecting rods or atoms in the model set are made from durable Polyethylene plastic, which is lightweight and flexible.

Common Features of a Crystal Model Set (PE):

• Material: Polyethylene (PE) for connectors and sometimes for atoms.
• Usage: Used to model crystalline structures like cubic, hexagonal, or molecular crystal formations.
• Applications:
  • Teaching solid-state chemistry.
  • Understanding lattice structures.
  • Visualizing atomic arrangements in metals, salts, and minerals.
• Types of Structures Represented:
  • Face-Centered Cubic (FCC)
  • Body-Centered Cubic (BCC)
  • Hexagonal Close-Packed (HCP)
  • Diamond & Graphite Structures
