Abstract

C60 has been subjected to multiple micro-alloying passes by co-rolling together with Al and Mg. Complete amorphization has been found in samples of C60 with Al. However, the structural changes in the C60/Mg combination were more complex. Here, a chemical reaction occurred during which the C60 molecules were apparently broken up into amorphous carbon-like materials, while a Mg-containing oxidation reaction product formed.
