United Scientific® Sodium Chloride Crystal Model – Ball-and-Spoke NaCl Structure with Acrylic Base

Explore the fundamental structure of ionic compounds with the United Scientific® Sodium Chloride Crystal Model. This high-quality ball-and-spoke model clearly demonstrates the unit cell structure of NaCl (table salt), making it an essential teaching tool for chemistry classrooms, labs, and demonstrations.

Permanently mounted on a durable clear acrylic base, the model highlights the two interpenetrating face-centered cubic lattices of sodium and chloride ions, providing a detailed and accurate representation of crystal lattice arrangements. With 27 precision-molded balls (22mm diameter each), this model offers both durability and clarity for repeated classroom use.

Whether used for high school, college, or university-level chemistry education, this crystal lattice model helps students visualize atomic bonding and ionic structures, reinforcing complex concepts with hands-on demonstration.
