Colloid and Solution Chemistry of Fullerenes: Formation, Properties, and Stability of Fullerene-Based Liquid Systems critically summarizes the data accumulated to date on fullerenes in liquid media and currently scattered across numerous publications. The author’s aim is to generalize the numerous results of various research groups around the world, examining fullerene solutions from a unified perspective, previously lacking in book literature, even though separate experimental and theoretical studies are huge in number.The chapters address two major challenges for readers. First, chapters present material for disclosing and predicting the properties and behavior of fullerenes in various liquid environments. Second, the book offers valuable insights for those interested in studying and teaching colloid chemistry, introducing a wide field of activity with these new objects, fullerenes. Dive deep into the molecular and colloidal states of C60, C70, and related compounds as they are studied in a range of solvents-from low polarity and polar organic solvents to water and aqueous surfactant solutions. Special emphasis is placed on the unique properties of fullerene solutions in 'good solvents,' alongside innovative methods for preparing fullerene sols and suspensions in both water and organic solvents. Additionally, the text evaluates the applicability of classical colloid science principles to these novel nanocarbon systems.Colloid and Solution Chemistry of Fullerenes: Formation, Properties, and Stability of Fullerene-Based Liquid Systems is an essential resource for understanding the complex world of fullerenes in liquid media, written primarily for chemists and physicists who work in nanoscience (especially nanocarbon science), chemical thermodynamics (phase transitions), solution chemistry (theory of solubility and solvation), colloid chemistry (colloid synthesis and colloid stability), chemical engineering and materials science.Enables readers (especially those beginning to work with fullerene solutions) to find information about the state of fullerenes in any type of solventSynthesizes the (often conflicting) interpretations of the data proposed by different research groups in an accessible mannerGathers, considers, and discusses concepts, statements and theories of numerous researchers, while offering the author’s own clear vision and perspective on the problems involvedHighlights unresolved issues, offering a firm foundation to inspire readers to conduct their own research.
