Abstract

Mechanical properties of various carbon phases prepared by the fullerite C60 heating in the 3.5 to 13.5 GPa pressure interval with the subsequent quenching have been reviewed, discussing, in particular, the general trends of interrelation between the structure, density, and mechanical properties of carbon materials. The considered pressure interval may be conditionally divided into the low-pressure part (P < 8 GPa), where C60 undergoes transformations to topologically low-dimensional structures (1D–2D polymers and sp2-based disordered structures), and the high-pressure part, corresponding to the 3D polymerization and formation of spa-based materials. Variations of mechanical characteristics depending on the synthesis conditions, as well as the relevant structural data, clarify the main trends in the transitional pressure-temperature diagram of C60. The data on mechanical properties make clear the means for a potential application of pressure-synthesized C60-based carbon materials. The advantages of the high-pressure fullerene technology for the synthesis of novel carbon materials, such as high nanometer-scale homogeneity and the possibilities of varying the cluster and atomic arrangement in materials, have been discussed.
