Structural Features of Highly Stable Reproducible C₆₀Fullerene Aqueous Colloid Solution Probed by Various Techniques

Abstract

The method of preparation of highly stable reproducible C60 fullerene aqueous colloid solution is described. The structural organization of C60 fullerenes in aqueous solution was studied and analyzed in detail using various techniques such as chemical analysis, UV/VIS spectroscopy, atomic force and scanning tunneling microscopy, dynamic light scattering, and zeta potential methods.
