Abstract:The self-aggregation of curcumin (Cur) on the surface of fullerene (C60) was induced by ultrasonic solvent exchange method. Associating the characterization results of infrared spectrum, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy, the molecular structure and morphology of two components in the aggregate (C60/Cur) were determined unchanged essentially. By analyzing the dependence of related cosmetic effects on the aggregating ratio of C60 and Cur, the monolayer saturation was found advantageous to impr… Show more
