(Nanowerk Spotlight) Increasing the efficiencies of polymer-based solar cells while at the same time keeping production complexity and cost low will require the preparation of new classes of polymers ...

Fullerene chemistry has evolved into a dynamic field where the unique properties of carbon allotropes, notably C60 and its derivatives, are harnessed through high-pressure polymerisation techniques.

Fullerenes with small energy differences between filled and unfilled electronic states of the individual fullerene molecules (“small gap fullerenes”) are especially susceptible to such spontaneous ...

A Japanese study reveals that bilayer membranes formed from a water-soluble fullerene derivative possess properties very different from those of conventional lipid bilayer membranes such as cell ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Carbon comes in many different forms, from the graphite found in pencils to the world's most expensive diamonds. While diamonds might be very popular among ladies, the two most ...

New York, Aug. 17, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reportlinker.com announces the release of the report "Fullerene Market - Global Industry Size, Share, Trends, Opportunity ...

Plans were announced today for the first large-scale production of carbon clusters known as fullerenes, discovered in 1985 but never before available in commercial quantities. Mitsubishi Corporation ...
