Abstract

The solvent molecules contained in C 60 NWs affect not only the shape but also the crystal structure of C 60 NWs. The solvents contained in C 60 NWs were found to be toluene and IPA by the GC-MS analysis. The most abundant solvent was toluene and the quantity of residual toluene in the as-prepared C 60 NWs was about 7 mass%. The quantity of impurity solvents is reported for the as-prepared, air-dried, vacuum-dried and heat-treated C 60 NWs.
