 Particle size distribution in prepared and treated C60
water suspensions was measured, proving that particles in the treated
suspension are 250nm in diameter, which is favourable for photopolymerization.
UV and visible spectra of water suspension were obtained to whether  C60
is able to be of polymerized. Time sufficient of fullerene for photopolymezyzation
was established.
