Name: Sam J. I am tring to find out a good diamagnetic material
for magnetic levatation. I know that Bismuth is the best
diamagnetic material. But with respect to Carbon-Graphite. I
have seen experaments using this and it works well. I was
wondering if you could use just carbon or just graphite, and
what would work better. Is it a combination of carbon and
graphite that works best or is one just a filler? Would using
just carbon work better, or just graphite I also heard that the
more dense the carbon is, the better it works. I just tring to
find the best combination to use that will levatate the best. I
plan on getting the matrial in tile form so I can cover a desk
and levatate a magnet over Actually, graphite IS carbon. Carbon-
Graphite is carbon in graphite form. Carbon atoms tend to join
together in one of three patterns, depending on how hard they
are pressed together. Under very high pressure, carbon will form
a crystal pattern people like to call diamond. Under more
mediocre conditions, carbon tends to
