Abstract
The densities of C60 fullerene solutions in benzene, toluene, and p-xylene have been determined by pyknometry and studied as a function of the fullerene concentration in solution. All dependences exhibit a non-monotonic character, whereby the density initially decreases, passes through a minimum, and then grows with increasing fullerene concentration. The position of the minimum shifts toward greater C60 concentrations on the passage from benzene to toluene and p-xylene.Keywords
