Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Thermogravimetry (TG) and X-ray showed the formation of two solid solvates of C-60 With 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene. Temperatures and enthalpies of decomposition of both solvates were measured by DSC. TG and DSC were applied to determine the composition of solvates. The influence of solvates on solubility of C-60 in 1,3,5-trimethylbenzene was discussed.
