Appearance, hardness, electrical conductivity, use of carbon 60
C60 does not normally conduct electricity because C60 is so large that it can put other atoms into it and affect its physical properties, so it cannot be electrically conductiveUsed to strengthen metalImprove the metal material strength by alloying, plastic deformation and heat treatment, one of the ways to strengthen the interaction through geometry, such as coke carbon dispersed in the metal, carbon and metal exchange position in the crystal lattice, can cause plastic deformation of metal, carbon and metal carbide particles that can make the metal enhanced. In the enhancement of metal materials, the effect of C60 ratio of carbon in coke is better, this is because the C60 is higher than the smaller particles, active carbon, particle size of C60 with metal carbide dispersion effect is 0.7nm, and the particle size of carbon and metal carbide dispersion effect the body is 2 m ~ 5 m, has a larger difference in enhancing the role of the metal.Used as a new catalystIn C60, the electronic structure of chemists began to explore the possibility of.C60 catalyst for C60 with olefin, with transition metal (such as platinum and nickel metal) to form a series of complexes. For example C60 and platinum, osmium can be combined into {[(C2H5) 3P]2Pt}C60 and C60OsO4 (four butylpyridine) and other coordination compounds and they are likely to become the efficient catalyst.Japanese researchers Toyohashi University of science and technology of the synthesis of highly catalytic activity of palladium Pt synthesis researchers and C60 compound C60Pd6. China Wuhan University (PPh3) 2C60 (PPh3 three, triphenylphosphine) for hydrosilylation reaction with high catalytic activity.
C60 is a molecule composed of 60 carbon atoms in the molecule, it is like football, so also known as footballene (C60. This material is composed of C60 molecules, rather than by the atoms.) C60 is simply made of carbon atoms with stable molecules, it has 60 vertices and 32 sides. The 12 is Pentagon and 20 hexagon. Its molecular weight is about 720.
For gas storageThe unique molecular structure of C60, C60 can be used as more effective and new hydrogen absorbing material than metal and alloy. There are 30 carbon carbon double bonds, each molecule of C60 so that the C60 molecules in the double bond open can absorb hydrogen. Stable C60 hydride has known C60 C60H24, C60H36 and C60H48. in the control of temperature and pressure conditions, can be simply made by C60 C60 and hydrogen hydrides, it at room temperature is very stable, and in the 80 to 215 DEG C, C60 hydride will release hydrogen, leaving the pure C60, it can be 100% recovery, and was used to prepare C60 hydride. Compared with the hydrogen storage materials of metal or its alloys, C60 hydrogen storage has the advantages of low price, and lighter than C60, metals and alloys, therefore, the same quality of material, the hydrogen storage of C60 metal or its alloy than more.C60 not only can store hydrogen, can also be used to store oxygen. Compared with high-pressure cylinders of oxygen storage, high pressure cylinder pressure is 3.9 * 106Pa, belongs to the high pressure oxygen storage method, and storage of C60 oxygen pressure is only 2.3 * 105 Pa, which belongs to low pressure oxygen storage method. Using C60 under low pressure, large storage has many uses of oxygen in the medical departments, military departments and the business sector will be.
