A general overview of the different types of C60-containing polymers according to their chemical structure and the consideration of their general synthetic routes as well as their plausible applications is given. The aim of this work is to establish a classification of the many fullerenecontaining polymers reported in the literature in order to clarify the field for all those chemists interested in the topic. Needless to say that not all the examples known are covered, but those more representative or appealing for the authors.
