Fullerene-C60, Purity: 98%
Description:
Fullerene-C60 with a purity of 98% is a highly refined form of the C60 molecule, composed of 60 carbon atoms arranged in a spherical structure resembling a truncated icosahedron. The higher purity ensures fewer impurities, such as C70 and other hydrocarbons, making it ideal for advanced research and specialized applications.
Key Features:
- Purity: 98% purity minimizes impurities, offering enhanced performance for applications demanding high precision.
- Structure: Consists of 12 pentagons and 20 hexagons, providing remarkable stability and versatility.
- Appearance: Dark brown to black powder or crystalline form.
Applications:
- Energy Storage: Utilized in the development of high-performance batteries and supercapacitors due to its superior electron-accepting properties.
- Optoelectronics: Widely used in organic photovoltaic cells (solar cells) and organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs).
- Biomedical Research: Higher purity enhances its efficiency in antioxidant therapies, drug delivery systems, and imaging applications.
- Catalysis: Acts as a catalyst in organic reactions, particularly in oxidation and hydrogenation processes.
- Material Enhancement: Improves mechanical and thermal properties when incorporated into composites and polymers.
