9360924 Yadav This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) project is in the general area of synthetic organic chemistry. The objective of the research is the demonstration of a new process for the low cost synthesis of fullerenes. Fullerenes are currently made by separation and purification of soot produced in a carbon arc. The inherent high cost of this process has made fullerenes inaccessible to commercial production and application. The Phase I SBIR research will demonstrate advanced concepts for generation, either by arcjet or flame, of carbon vapor and supersonic expansion quenching of carbon atoms derived from low cost precursors such as natural gas, petroleum byproducts and/or biomass to produce fullerene structures of controlled molecular weight. %%% Demonstration of feasibility of producing low cost fullerenes by unique quenching of carbon vapors will create commercialization opportunities for their application diverse areas such as diamond nucleation, optics, electronics, and pharmaceuticals. ***

小行星9360924 这个小企业创新研究（SBIR）项目是在合成有机化学的一般领域。该研究的目的是展示一种低成本合成富勒烯的新工艺。富勒烯目前是通过分离和纯化碳弧中产生的烟灰来制备的。该方法固有的高成本使得富勒烯无法进行商业生产和应用。第一阶段SBIR研究将展示先进的概念，无论是电弧喷射或火焰，碳蒸气和碳原子的超音速膨胀淬火来自低成本的前体，如天然气，石油副产品和/或生物质产生富勒烯结构的控制分子量。 通过碳蒸气的独特淬火来生产低成本富勒烯的可行性的证明将为其应用于金刚石成核、光学、电子和制药等不同领域创造商业化机会。 ***
