The Calculated adsorption energy of benzene on the C₂₄ fullerene was about -2.93 and -3.20 kJ/mol. The results suggested that the C₂₄ fullerene has low sensitivity to the presence of benzene and the electronic properties of the fullerene after benzene adsorption remain almost unchanged https://www.biotech-asia.org/vol12no2/benzene-adsorption-on-c24-fullerene/ C₂₄ fullerene; Benzene; Adsorption; DFT study
