buckmuunduriteks
Buckmuunduriteks, also known as buckminsterfullerenes, are a class of carbon allotropes that consist of 60 carbon atoms arranged in a truncated icosahedron, which resembles a soccer ball. They were first discovered in 1985 by Richard Smalley, Robert Curl, and Harold Kroto, for which they were awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1996. The name "buckminsterfullerene" is derived from the architect Buckminster Fuller, whose geodesic domes the molecules resemble.
Buckmuunduriteks are part of the fullerene family, which also includes larger fullerenes like C70 and C84.
Despite their potential, buckmuunduriteks are still relatively rare and expensive to produce. However, ongoing research is
