The formation of carbon phases by reacting formaldehyde with sulfuric acid under hydrothermal conditions was studied. The final products of the reaction were found to be amorphous carbon, diamond-like carbon, α- and β-graphite phases, fullerenes C 60 and C 70 , fullerites, carbolite, and chaoite. Hy...
