Hydrogen desorption and adsorption properties of the fullerene materials C60 , C70, and fullerite ~a mixture of C60 and C70) were measured volumetrically using a Sievert’s apparatus. Over several cycles of isotherm measurements at 77 K, the hydrogen storage capacities of one of the fullerite samples increased from an initial value of 0.4 wt % for the first cycle to a capacity of 4.4 wt % for th...

Phenol- and naphthalene-degrading indigenous Pseudomonas pseudoalcaligenes strain C70 has great potential for the bioremediation of polluted areas. It harbours two chromosomally located catechol meta pathways, one of which is structurally and phylogenetically very similar to the Pseudomonas sp. CF600 dmp operon and the other to the P. stutzeri AN10 nah lower operon. The key enzymes of the catec...

A fundamental chemical question concerning the fullerenes involves their aromatic nature. For many reasons, it is impossible to experimentally obtain anything that is similar to a resonance energy for a fullerene. We must therefore rely on information obtained from magnetic properties. Since fullerenes are borderless polycyclic conjugated systems with internal cavities, it is possible to study ...

Orientational ordering transitions in C70 are studied by constructing a Landau free energy in terms of order parameters describing long-range orientational order. This theory predicts that the transition from the orientationally disordered state into a partially ordered state, where the long axes of the molecules are parallel to one another, is discontinuous with an elastic distortion. Order pa...
