Information Sources

Some of the text in this entry was rewritten from Los Alamos National Laboratory - Carbon. Additional text was taken directly from USGS Periodic Table - Carbon, from the Elements database 20001107 (via dict.org), Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913) (via dict.org) and WordNet (r) 1.7 (via dict.org). Data for the table was obtained from the sources listed on the main page and WikiProject Elements but was reformatted and converted into SI units.

Why isn't lampblack/soot/charcoal counted as an allotropic form of carbon? It is a form that is not diamond, graphite or a fullerene. Of course, it isn't crystalline, but that's not a requirement of being an allotrope.

Aren't they just graphite with impurities? -- Tarquin 11:04 Jan 22, 2003 (UTC)
