Poster Print : VX nerve gas molecule
Poster Prints from Science Photo Library
VX nerve gas molecule
VX nerve gas. Computer artwork of a molecule of the nerve gas VX (methylphophonothioic acid, S- [2(diethylamino)ethyl]-2-methylpropyl ester, chemical formula (C11. H26. N. O2.P.S)). The atoms are shown as spheres and are colour-coded: carbon (blue), oxygen (red), nitrogen (cyan), hydrogen (white), phosphorus (orange) and sulphur (yellow). The bonds between them are shown as cylinders. VX is used in chemical weapons. It is deadly and works in seconds. Skin contact or inhalation leads to disruption of the nervous system leading to convulsions, paralysis and death

Introducing the Media Storehouse range of Poster Prints featuring the captivating image of a VX nerve gas molecule. This stunning scientific visualization, sourced from Science Photo Library, offers a unique perspective into the complex structure of this notorious chemical weapon. With intricate details highlighting the molecule's components - methylphosphonothioic acid, S-[2(diethylamino)ethyl]-2-methylpropyl ester, and its chemical formula C11. H26. N. O2.P.S - this print is a must-have for science enthusiasts, educators, and anyone with a fascination for the intricacies of chemistry. Bring the mysteries of science into your home or office with our high-quality, vibrant poster prints.
A2 Poster (59.4 x 42cm, 23.4" x 16.5" inches) printed on 170gsm Satin Poster Paper. Securely packaged, rolled and inserted into a strong mailing tube and shipped tracked. Poster Prints are of comparable archival quality to our Photographic prints, they are simply printed on thinner Poster Paper. Whilst we only use Photographic Prints in our frames, you can frame Poster Prints if they are carefully supported to prevent sagging over time.
Poster prints are budget friendly enlarged prints in standard poster paper sizes (A0, A1, A2, A3 etc). Whilst poster paper is sometimes thinner and less durable than our other paper types, they are still ok for framing and should last many years. Our Archival Quality Photo Prints and Fine Art Paper Prints are printed on higher quality paper and the choice of which largely depends on your budget.
Estimated Image Size (if not cropped) is 53.8cm x 42cm (21.2" x 16.5")
Estimated Product Size is 59.4cm x 42cm (23.4" x 16.5")
These are individually made so all sizes are approximate
Artwork printed orientated as per the preview above, with landscape (horizontal) orientation to match the source image.
EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate structure of a VX nerve gas molecule, depicted through stunning computer artwork. The molecule, known as methylphophonothioic acid, S-[2 (diethylamino)ethyl]-2-methylpropyl ester, is represented by vibrant spheres in various colors to distinguish its different atoms. Carbon appears as blue spheres, oxygen as red, nitrogen as cyan, hydrogen as white, phosphorus as orange, and sulphur as yellow. VX nerve gas is notorious for its devastating effects and is commonly employed in chemical weapons. Its lethal nature becomes evident within seconds of exposure through skin contact or inhalation. This deadly substance swiftly disrupts the nervous system leading to convulsions and paralysis ultimately resulting in death. The image serves not only to captivate viewers with its artistic representation but also highlights the significance of organic chemistry in understanding dangerous compounds like VX nerve gas. Through molecular graphics and detailed visualization techniques utilized in this computer art piece, scientists gain valuable insights into the complex structures that underlie these hazardous substances. Science Photo Library presents this remarkable artwork without any commercial intent or affiliation with any specific company. Instead, it aims to shed light on the profound impact chemical weapons can have on human life while emphasizing the importance of continued research and vigilance against their use.
