General description

C76 is a higher fullerene with 76 carbon atoms. It may be prepared by dc arc discharge method. C NMR study of C76 shows the phase transition temperature to be in the range of 135-170K and the effect of crystallinity is different from C60 and C70. Electron affinity of C76 was determined to be 2.88+/- 0.05 eV.
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency. Find details here.

Application

Fullerene-C76 is a higher order fullerene with good optical absorption, which can be potentially used for polymeric solar cells based applications.
