The snub disphenoid can be visualized as an atom cluster surrounding a central atom, that is the dodecahedral molecular geometry. Its vertices may be placed in a sphere and can also be used as a minimum possible Lennard-Jones potential among all eight-sphere clusters. The dual polyhedron of the snub disphenoid is the elongated gyrobifastigium.
The digonal disphenoid has faces with two different shapes, both isosceles triangles, with two faces of each shape. The phyllic disphenoid similarly has faces with two shapes of scalene triangles. Disphenoids can also be seen as digonal antiprisms or as alternated quadrilateral prisms .

This definition is used in the naming of two Johnson solids: the snub disphenoid and the snub square antiprism, and of higher dimensional polytopes, such as the 4-dimensional snub 24-cell, with extended Schläfli symbol s{3,4,3}, and Coxeter diagram .
In chemistry, the dodecahedral molecular geometry describes the shape of compounds where eight atoms or groups of atoms or ligands are arranged around a central atom defining the vertices of a snub disphenoid (also known as a trigonal dodecahedron).
The criteria is also satisfied by eleven other Johnson solids, specifically the tridiminished icosahedron, parabidiminished rhombicosidodecahedron, tridiminished rhombicosidodecahedron, snub disphenoid, snub square antiprism, sphenocorona, sphenomegacorona, hebesphenomegacorona, disphenocingulum, bilunabirotunda, and triangular ...
Snub polyhedra have Wythoff symbol | p q r and by extension, vertex configuration 3.p.3.q.3.r.Retrosnub polyhedra (a subset of the snub polyhedron, containing the great icosahedron, small retrosnub icosicosidodecahedron, and great retrosnub icosidodecahedron) still have this form of Wythoff symbol, but their vertex configurations are instead (..).
snub disphenoid, with twelve triangular faces, constructed by involving two regular hexagons in the following order: these hexagons may form a bipyramid in degeneracy, separating them into two parts along a coinciding diagonal, pressing inward on the end of diagonal, rotating one of them in 90°, and rejoining them together.
