Description
Fullerene-C60, Purity: 99.9%
Fullerene-C60 (99.9%) is a highly pure, structurally perfect allotrope of carbon composed of 60 carbon atoms arranged in a spherical form resembling a soccer ball. This geometric marvel, also known as Buckminsterfullerene, is based on a truncated icosahedron structure, consisting of 12 pentagons and 20 hexagons.
Thanks to its remarkable symmetry, Fullerene-C60 exhibits excellent crystalline properties, forming face-centered cubic lattices on substrates like silicon (Si) and gallium arsenide (GaAs). Even with significant lattice mismatches, it maintains its unique morphology and functionality, which makes it highly valuable in advanced material science and nanotechnology.
The high purity of 99.9% ensures exceptional performance in scientific and industrial applications, ranging from electronic components to pharmaceutical formulations. Its ability to interact on the nanoscale with other materials has revolutionized our understanding of graphitic carbon systems, including graphene and carbon nanotubes.
