GEMZ Corp. Details Progress in Acquiring Exclusive Development Rights for Nanotechnology Based on Bucky Balls.

: GMZP - News) today announced that it has made progress in negotiations to acquire exclusive development rights for a nanotechnology based on bucky balls.

The technology that GEMZ Corp. is negotiating to acquire focuses on a process for using bucky balls as an efficient method of storing hydrogen for batteries and/or fuel cells at a manufacturing cost of pennies per gram. While the technology is still conceptual, and its development is still uncertain and fraught with risk, if successful, the technology could store hydrogen in C60 at a cost two orders of magnitude lower than current technology permits.

Bucky balls, also known as Fullerenes, after the architect Buckminster Fuller, are the roundest and most symmetrical symmetrical

equally on both sides.

Any of two or more forms of the same chemical element. They may have different arrangements of atoms in crystals of the solid—for example, graphite and diamond for carbon—or different numbers of atoms in their molecules—for example, ordinary
 of carbon. Bucky balls are hollow spheres and ovoids. They are formed from 60 carbon molecules in the shape of a sphere. and are made up of twelve hexagons connected to twenty pentagons, forming a figure similar to a soccer ball. One form of bucky ball, known as C60 is the third major form of pure carbon; graphite graphite (grăf`īt), an allotropic form of carbon, known also as plumbago and black lead. It is dark gray or black, crystalline (often in the form of slippery scales), greasy, and soft, with a metallic luster.  and diamond are the other two. Graphite and diamonds have greatly improved technology in many fields, with their properties, such as their strength and hardness. The C60 molecule has the special property of being able to absorb large numbers of hydrogen atoms--almost one hydrogen atom for each carbon atom Noun 1. carbon atom - an atom of carbon

 --without disrupting the bucky ball structure. This property suggests that fullerenes may be a better storage medium for hydrogen than metal hydrides, the best current material, and hence possibly a key factor in the development of new batteries and even of non-polluting automobiles based on fuel cells. If we can manipulate carbon into a structure that can absorb hydrogen, then hydrogen can used as a fuel, like gasoline.

GEMZ Corp., through its subsidiary International Nanotechnology Corporation, anticipates acquiring an exclusive license to the patent-pending technology and to raise the funds necessary to develop a practical proof of concept.
