General description

Fullerene soot is a combination of fullerenes and carbon blacks. It is produced by vaporizing pure carbon in an inert atmosphere and condensing the vapor, forming a wide range of structures that include fullerenes.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Find details here.

Application

Fullerene soot is a carbonaceous material that can be used in a variety of sustainable applications such as double-layer capacitor (DLC), water purification, hydrogen storage, supercapacitor, and nanoelectronics.
Fullerene soot is a low cost nanomaterial that finds applications in superconductors, photoconductors and semiconductor based industries.
