Fullerenes are greater than 95% pure.
Press Release Summary:
Commercial-grade, solvent-free fullerenes are carbon molecules with distinct chemical, electrical, and optical properties. Manufactured using combustion synthesis process, C60, C70, and C84 fullerenes are greater than 95% pure and are supplied as soluble powder. Applications include polymer photoelectronics, non-linear optics, drugs and biomedical devices, cosmetics, and various coatings and films.
Original Press Release:
Commercial-Grade Fullerenes - Production Quantities Introduced
A new line of commercial-grade, solvent-free fullerenes that are in stock for immediate delivery, and cost significantly less than other fullerenes, is being introduced by Nano-C, LLC of Westwood, Massachusetts.
Nano-C Fullerenes are exotic carbon molecules with distinct chemical, electrical, and optical properties that enhance the performance of a wide range of products used in many different industries. Manufactured in high-volume production quantities using a patented combustion synthesis process, these solvent-free C60, C70, and C84 fullerenes feature >95% purity and are supplied as a soluble powder; making them a practical engineering material.
Applications for Nano-C Fullerenes include polymer photoelectronics where they are used as electron acceptors in plastic solar cells and photo-detectors; non-linear optics; drugs and biomedical devices such as stents where their ability to scavenge free radicals and function as a drug delivery platform are useful; cosmetics where their anti-oxidant properties contribute to anti-aging creams; and various types of coatings and films.
Nano-C Fullerenes are priced from $10,000.00 per kilogram (pure C60), which represents a 50% to 90% average cost reduction over previously available fullerenes, claims the firm. Literature is available upon request.
