Although there have been great advances in covalent functionalization of fullerenes to obtain surface-modified fullerene derivatives or fullerene polymers, the application of these compounds in composites still remains unexplored, basically because of the low availability of these compounds [132]. However, until now, modified fullerene derivatives have been used to prepare composites with different polymers, including acrylic [133,134] or vinyl polymers [135], polystyrene [136], polyethylene [137], and polyimide [138,139], amongst others. These composite materials have found applications especially in the field of optoelectronics [140] in which the most important applications of the fullerene-polymer composites have been in the field of photovoltaic and optical-limiting materials [141]. The methods to covalently functionalize fullerenes and their application for composites or hybrid materials are very well established and they have set the foundations that later were applied to the covalent functionalization of other carbon nanostructures including CNTs and graphene.
