A fullerene is a molecule of carbon in the form of a hollow sphere, ellipsoid, tube, and many other shapes. Spherical fullerenes are also called buckyballs, and they resemble the balls used in football (soccer). Cylindrical ones are called carbon nanotubes or buckytubes.he smallest fullerene is the dodecahedral C 20. There are no fullerenes with 22 vertices. The number of fullerenes C 2n grows with increasing n = 12, 13, 14, ..., roughly in proportion to n 9 (sequence A007894 in OEIS). For instance, there are 1812 non-isomorphic fullerenes C 60.
Buckyballs: Uses and Applications | Fullerenes. The properties of buckyballs (also known as fullerenes) have caused researchers and companies to consider using them in several fields. The following survey of buckyball applications introduces many of these uses.Click on any of the links below to go to a detailed explanation.ombining buckyballs, nanotubes, and polymers to produce inexpensive solar cells that can be formed by simply painting a surface. Buckyballs may be used to store hydrogen, possibly as a fuel tank for fuel cell powered cars. Buckyballs may be able to reduce the growth of bacteria in pipes and membranes in water systems.
