The element with atomic number six is carbon.
Carbon is the most important element to human life.
Carbon’s unique property of polymer-forming at the
temperatures commonly encountered on Earth, make it the back bone
of all organic material. Carbon forms more compounds than any other
element, with almost ten million pure organic compounds described
to date. And carbon is the chemical basis of all known life.
There are several allotropes of carbon, of which the best known
are graphite, diamond, and amorphous carbon. While graphite and
amorphous carbon are soft, and dark, diamond is the hardest
material known. And it has extremely high thermal conductivity,
even higher than metals. Other than jewelry usage, diamond is one
of the most useful industrial material, due to its unique thermal
and mechanical properties. Carbon nano tubes and fibers have been
researched extensively and begin to be used in practical
application. Graphene appears to be the strongest material ever
tested.
The best known allotropes of carbon is diamond. Diamond has been
known by human since ancient time. Most people believe that "A
Diamond Is Forever" is a long tradition in western civilian. On the
contrary, it is a advertising slogan created by a diamond company
in 1947. It has been named as the best advertising slogan of the
twentieth century. The image of diamond as a valuable commodity has
been preserved through clever marketing campaigns (as, indeed, is
the case with many other luxury products). The company behind all
the marketing campaigns is De Beers, which controls a significant
proportion of the trade in diamonds.
Today
De Beers opens a new shop in Santa Clara. This cache leads to
the shop of Element Six (the synthetic diamonds division of the De
Beers Group) to witness the invasion of element six to element 14 territory.
