Product Name
Polyhydroxylated fullerenes, water soluble
Category
3D Printing Materials; Carbon Nanomaterials
Description
Polyhydroxylated fullerenes, (water soluble)(PHF) is a functionalized fullerene that is also called fullerenol which can be used as a molecular anti-oxidant and a nanoparticle. It is a non-toxic fullerene which is attached with 12-42 hydroxyl groups per molecule that result in water solubility. Its structure and the position of the hydroxyl groups will depend on the existing pH of the media.
Solubility
water: soluble >50 mg/mL; DMSO: slightly soluble;methanol: slightly soluble
Application
PHF may be incorporated in titanium dioxide to form a nanocomposite which can be potentially used in the photocatalysis of semiconductors. Its photothermal and therapeutic properties may be used in non-invasive image based therapy of cancer.
Form
solid (light yellow to yellow)
Packaging
100 mg in glass insert
