A process for separating C.sub.60, C.sub.70, and higher fullerenes above C.sub.70 is provided. The process employs a chromatographic column utilizing a functionalized aromatic-containing resin as the stationary phase, an organic solvent as the mobile phase, and a mixture of fullerenes dissolved in the mobile phase.
摘要:
A low-cost and facile method of purifying fullerenes to obtain a preparation enriched in a fullerene of selected molecular weight using activated carbon involves adding a fullarena mixture to the top end of a column comprising activated carbon, passing a solvent in which the selected molecular weight fullerene is soluble through the column, and recovering a fraction enriched in the selected molecular weight fullerene from the bottom end of the column. In addition to activated carbon, the column may further comprise silica gel, diatomaceous earth, or other materials which aid in column packing and eluent flow. The invention also provides for preparation of gram quantities of pure C.sub.60 and C.sub.70 fullerenes after a single column pass.

摘要:
Poly(phenylene) that is substantially free of insoluble material is prepared by the polymerization of a lithioarylhalide compound in the presence of a polar aprotic compound such as hexamethylphosphoramide, N,N,N',N'-tetramethylethylenediamine or hexamethylphosphorous triamide. The preferred reaction involves the polymerization of 1-bromo-4-lithiobenzene in the presence of hexamethylphosphoramide. The 1-bromo-4-1ithiobenzene may be synthesized by reacting 1,4-dibromobenzene with t-butyllithium. These same types of reactions can also be used to synthesis other benzenoid polymers.

The stereochemical structure necessary for preparation of perpendicularly arranged cores is provided by a compound of the formula ##STR1## wherein X is a reactive group through which polymeric subunits can be bonded to the compound. In particular, X is advantageously Br. This compound can be synthesized by the reaction of tetrakis(3'-trimethylsilyl-2'-propynyl)silane with zirconocene dichloride and n-butyllithium and adding sulfur monochloride to the reaction product. This produces an adduct in which X is SiMe.sub.3. This adduct may be converted to the bromo compound by reaction with bromine. The tetrakis(3'-trimethylsilyl-2-propynyl)silane may be prepared by forming a magnesium Grignard reagent from 3-bromo-1-trimethylsilylpropyne and reacting the Grignard reagent with silicon tetrachloride.

In some embodiments, the present disclosure pertains to methods of producing a graphene hybrid material by exposing a graphene precursor material to a laser source to form a laser-induced graphene, where the laser-induced graphene is derived from the graphene precursor material. The methods of the present disclosure also include a step of associating a pseudocapacitive material (e.g., a conducting polymer or a metal oxide) with the laser-induced graphene to form the graphene hybrid material. The formed graphene hybrid material can become embedded with or separated from the graphene precursor material. The graphene hybrid materials can also be utilized as components of an electronic device, such as electrodes in a microsupercapacitor. Additional embodiments of the present disclosure pertain to the aforementioned graphene hybrid materials and electronic devices.

In some embodiments, the present disclosure pertains to methods of capturing CO2 from an environment by hydrating a porous material with water molecules to the extent thereby to define a preselected region of a plurality of hydrated pores and yet to the extent to allow the preselected region of a plurality of pores of the porous material to uptake gas molecules; positioning the porous material within a CO2 associated environment; and capturing CO2 by the hydrated porous material. In some embodiments, the pore volume of the hydrated porous material includes between 90% and 20% of the pre-hydrated pore volume to provide unhydrated pore volume within the porous material for enhanced selective uptake of CO2 in the CO2 associated environment. In some embodiments, the step of capturing includes forming CO2-hydrates within the pores of the porous material, where the CO2.nH2O ratio is n
