“…An experimental confirmation of this number is difficult: in infrared spectroscopy, the OH-bands are not quantitative due to depolarization effects, and in nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, the proton resonances are very broad and not suited for quantitative analyses. Goswami et al [26] proposed a thermo-gravimetric method, which was successfully applied in [27]. In our approach, we start with the quantitative analysis of the C1s core level and its chemically shifted contributions.…”

We have studied thin films of C 60 , [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester, and fullerenol by Near-Edge X-ray Absorption Fine Structure Spectroscopy at the C1s edge. The advantage of this technique is the sensitivity to unoccupied π states within the sp 2 chemical bond structure. In particular, we focus on the relative intensity of the C1s→π*(p-p) transitions. Upon adding functional groups to the C 60 molecular frame, the intensity of these bands is reduced or almost vanished accompanied by increasing C1s→π*(s-p) transitions. This finding is confirmed by Xray photoemission data in the valence band region where the peaks according to the occupied π states disappeared particularly in the fullerenol films. These data in combination with the quantitative analysis of the C1s core level data suggest that C=C double bonds are broken when binding two OH-groups correlated to a change of the carbon bonding state from sp 2 to sp 3 .

“…Combination of fullerene with polymer has led to wide variety of new materials [2]. It has been suggested that modification of PBT with fullerene C 60 could give a new attractive nanocomposite material of improved chemical, physical and mechanical properties [3,4]. Fullerene is known as nanoparticle and undergoes various kinds of addition reactions [5].…”

“…The number of hydroxyl groups in a fullerenol molecule (x = 38-40) was determined gravimetrically (thermal analysis [12]). The resulting product contained 55% of the gadolinium component according to calculation based on the Gd@C 82 (OH) 38 formula.…”
