Description

General description

C₆₀ is an n-channel organic semiconductor. High reactivity of fullerenes is attributed to its characteristic pyramidalization of the sp² carbons. C₆₀ is purified by column chromatography in toluene, then heat-treated under vacuum to remove solvent residue. Highly crystalline sublimed material with low solvent and metal content was recovered.

Fullerene-C₆₀ (C₆₀) has a closed-cage structure that is icosachedrally shaped with 60 sp² hybridized carbon. It is majorly utilized in the development of novel materials for a wide range of energy based applications.

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Find details here.

Application

An n-channel organic semiconductor. Water suspension of C₆₀ was studied for its effect on the growth, cell viability and membrane integrity of Escherichia coli B23.

C₆₀ can be used for a wide range of applications, such as anode materials for lithium (Li)-ion batteries, and pentacene-C₆₀ based solar cells with high quantum efficiency. It can be incorporated in (1,4-phenylene vinylene) (PPV) matrix for applications in photovoltaics.

Fullerene-C₆₀ (sublimed, 99.9%) belongs to the class of carbonaceous materials. It can be used for a variety of alternative energy applications, which include lithium-ion batteries, organic photovoltaic cells (OPV), heterojunction solar cells, polymeric photodetectors, photodiodes, and photocatalysis.
