Abstract
The interaction of C60 fullerite and C60—NH4Cl mixture (8 wt. % of NH4Cl, promoter of reaction) with ammonia was investigated at a starting NH3 pressure of 0.6—0.7 MPa in the temperature range 423—773 K. Raising the temperature to 723 K is accompanied by hydrogenation and nitrogenation of the C60 matrix. Treatment of fullerite with ammonia at 773 K is followed by the decomposition of the fullerene framework and formation of X-ray amorphous product. The physico-chemical properties of hydride-nitride phases formed during the interaction were investigated.
