Interaction of polymers with fullerene C60

The fundamentals of the method for estimating the fullerene-binding power of polymer macromolecules and supramolecular formations are developed for fullerene C60. Polymers with covalently attached anthracene groups (one group per macromolecule) whose luminescence decreases in the presence of fullerene in solution in direct proportion to the stability of the fullerene-polymer complex are used. The effect of the anthracene mark on the fullerene-binding power of a luminescent-marked polymer is taken into account or discarded on the basis of an analysis of the interaction between fullerene and low-molecular models of luminescent marks.
