Abstract
Little is published on larger size empty cage fullerenes due to their low yield in soot extracts and inefficient isolation techniques. Even less is known about the newer Fullertubes – molecular carbon structures comprised of fullerene endcaps with a nanotube belt. We have developed a novel method to purify these rarely studied fullertubes and have now opened the door for research into these unique nanoparticles. In this poster presentation, I will discuss the chemical selectivity of various combinations of straight-chain aminoalcohols and solvents to enrich the abundance of Fullertubes in preparation for facile HPLC isolation.
