Abstract
Direct intercalation of transition metals into graphite is hardly conceivable 1 and in fact has never succeeded to date, due to the high ionisation potentials and lattice enthalpies of these elements. So usually these elements are introduced into graphite by means of the intercalation of their halides followed by a reduction of the intercalation compound. Many authors have worked on this field using either chemical or electrochemical reductions 2. These methods have given different kinds of materials.
