Abstract
In situ energy dispersive x-ray measurements were performed on C-60 fullere ne at pressures of 2.6, 5.7 and 12 GPa and temperatures between 300 and 110 0 K. The polymerization process was followed in detail and the dynamics of the phase changes measured This has enabled us to map the P-T phase diagram and look at the dynamics of the phase transformations.
