It is shown that graphite gives a regular sequence of polyyne and cyclopolyyne chains from C10 to C27 and additionally produces 2% of C60 fullerene. When carbon black is used in place of graphite under the same conditions, no C60 fullerene was produced and also the sequence of polyyne species generated was very irregular. If really carbon black structure and elemental composition approaches more closely than pure graphite the structure of the carbon dust, we can predict that C60 fullerene should not be produced from the thermal decomposition of this dust in high vacuum.","PeriodicalId":12470,"journal":{"name":"Fullerene Science and Technology","volume":"26 1","pages":"553 - 559"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79102088","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The solubility varies linearly with the molar volume for the alcohol series and the heteroatom containing solvents, though specific interactions of the charge transfer type seem to dominate in the case of aromatic hydrocarbons and the halogenated solvents. The symmetric nature of the [60]fullerene and its clustering behavior could be the reason for the solubility variations observed in the solvents where specific interactions are present. The aggregation behavior of [60]fullerene molecule studied by laser light scattering technique in the solvent mixture of toluene and N,N-dimethyl formamide confirms the cluster formation and its dependence on the volume ratio in the binary solvent mixture.","PeriodicalId":12470,"journal":{"name":"Fullerene Science and Technology","volume":"12 1","pages":"477 - 486"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"78638722","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study has been conducted respectively under nitrogen flow and under air flow by simultaneous thermogravimetric analysis and differential thermal analysis (TGA-DTA) on rubber samples containing known quantities of fullerene in comparison to a “blank” of pure rubber. The results show that C60 fullerene (in absence of oxygen) is a thermal stabilizer of cis-1,4-polyisoprene because it reacts with the polyisoprene macroradicals formed by the thermally-induced chain scission reaction slowing down the degradation reaction. Conversely, under thermo-oxidative degradation conditions (in air flow) fullerene C60 acts as an antioxidant for cis-1,4-polyisoprene, provided that the heating rate of the samples is slow (5°/min). At higher heating rates (20°C/min) C60 does not show any antioxidant effect.","PeriodicalId":12470,"journal":{"name":"Fullerene Science and Technology","volume":"15 1","pages":"497 - 513"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-08-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85397600","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
