The thinks you describes are systems made of multiple materials. Are you aware of a materials that behave that way by its own ?
- Filligree 3y agoNo, and LK-99 isn’t made of a single material either.
- criddell 3y agoHow do you mean? It isn’t like a wire where you typically have separate insulator and conductor materials, is it?
- aziaziazi 3y agoCan you elaborate on that ? For noobs like me, LK-99 only contains Pb9Cu(PO4)6O, doesn’t it ?
- Someone 3y ago_If_ some of its properties change depending on the direction you measure, it can’t look the same in all directions. As a simple example, consider graphite. That’s just ‘C’, but the crystalline version is layered, so it behaves differently depending on what direction you look at it. Like wood, it will split easier when hammered parallel to the layers than when hit oblique to it.
- baq 3y agoDiamond and graphite both only contain C.
- vingt_regards 3y agoGraphite
- cma 3y agoTV rock for a similar thing optically.
- frognumber 3y agoTo give an extreme example: Bundles of carbon nanotubes. Or carbon nanotube cloth. It's pure carbon. A lot of materials (including any crystal) have a sense of direction.
