Method for Further Processing the Residue Obtained During the Production of Fullerene and Carbon Nanostructures

摘要

The present invention relates to a process for further processing of the carbon-containing residue derived from fullerene production and from carbon-nanostructures production, characterized in that the residue is functionalized via introduction of chemical substituents, and the functionalization is carried out during or after the production process. The functionalized carbon-containing residue obtainable by the process is also provided, as is its use as a hydroxylating agent, wetting agent, additive in rubber compounds, and for tether-directed remote functionalization.
