Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

The H2 reduction of graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) with nickel and iron chlorides before and after fluorination with BrF3 solutions in HF has been studied by X-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, and Raman scattering spectroscopy. The results indicate that, up to 700°C, the thermolysis of the GICs with nickel and iron chlorides does not reach completion. Thermolysis of the fluorinated GICs in a hydrogen atmosphere at 600°C can be used to fabricate metal-graphite composites. This behavior is interpreted in terms of the thermal properties of the GICs.
