Metal Print : Nylon 6 crystals
Metal Prints from Science Photo Library
Nylon 6 crystals
Nylon crystals. Polarised light micrograph of nylon 6 spherulites (crystals). The spherulites appear as yellow and blue circles in a cross pattern. They form when a polymer such as nylon is slowly cooled from its molten state. Rapid cooling produces smaller crystals, this is desirable as it makes the polymer more mouldable and less brittle. Nylon is an ideal material for textile fibres and is often used in clothing. Nylon fibres can also be used for things like fishing rods. Nylon can also be moulded into articles such as dishware, combs and machinery parts. Magnification: x25 at 35mm size

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of Nylon 6 crystals under polarised light. The mesmerizing image reveals a cross pattern formed by yellow and blue circles, representing spherulites - crystalline structures that emerge when nylon is slowly cooled from its molten state. The size of these crystals greatly depends on the cooling rate, with rapid cooling resulting in smaller crystals. This desirable characteristic makes nylon more flexible and less prone to brittleness, making it an excellent material for various applications. Primarily known for its use in textile fibers, nylon finds its way into our clothing, providing durability and comfort simultaneously. Beyond fashion, nylon's versatility extends to other domains as well. Fishing rods benefit from the strength and resilience offered by nylon fibers. Moreover, this synthetic material can be molded into everyday objects such as dishware, combs, or even machinery parts due to its exceptional properties. With a magnification of x25 at 35mm size, this photograph not only captures the scientific essence of crystal formation but also highlights the aesthetic appeal hidden within microscopic worlds. Science Photo Library continues to amaze us with their ability to capture stunning visuals that bridge science and art seamlessly.
