Buckyball films are reported to remain super-conductive at temperatures as high as 45 k.;The element carbon, due to its high heat capacity per unit weight, high energy of vaporization, and high temperature and pressure required for melting, has the highest "heat of ablation" (energy absorbed per mass lost) of any material, provided that mechanical removal of particulates does not occur.;The apparent density of beech charcoal is 0.45 g/mL and that of pine charcoal is 0.28 g/mL; the density of pore-free charcoal ranges between 1.38 and 1.46 g/mL, depending on the kind of wood; the porosity of beech charcoal is ca 70%; the bulk density of charcoal, which depends on the kind of wood and the size of the pieces, ranges from 180 to 220 kg/cu m; the heating value ranges between 29 and 33 kJ/g;Graphite is one of the softest known materials while diamond is one of the hardest. Graphite exists in two forms: alpha and beta. These have identical physical properties, except for their crystal structure. Naturally occurring graphites are reported to contain as much as 30% of the rhombohedral (beta) form, whereas synthetic materials contain only the alpha form. The hexagonal alpha type can be converted to beta by mechanical treatment, and the beta form reverts to the alpha on heating it above 1000 °C.;Liquid molar volume = 0.007455 cu m/kmol;Heat of formation = 7.1668X10+8 J/kmol;Heat of fusion = 1.0460X10+8 J/kmol at melting point
