Measured properties
- Appearance
- Black odorless powder, [Alfa Aesar MSDS] · Spherical aromatic molecule with a hollow truncated-icosahedron structure, similar to a soccer ball. /C60/
- Melting point
- At 260 K, a first-order phase transition from face-centered cubic crystal structure to a simple cubic structure is observed, accompanied by a lattice contraction. ... At 90 K the molecules rearrange to attain the best global minimum. ... At this temperature, the rotational degrees of freedom are frozen, and the solid structure is designated as a pseudo-face-centered cubic crystal structure. C70 Fu
- Solubility
- Virtually insoluble in acetone, ethers, and alcohols · /C60/ is essentially insoluble in polar solvents, sparingly soluble in alkanes. In aromatic solvents and in carbon disulfide appreciable solubilities are observed.
