Expandable Graphite
The layered lattice structure of graphite enables the intercalation of atoms or small molecules between the carbon layers.
Expanded Graphite
Under the influence of heat, the layers unfold like an accordion, and the graphite flakes expand. Depending on the material.
Graphene
While carbon already offers a wide range of applications in the form of graphite and diamond, the two-dimensionally structured modification.
Synthetic Graphite
Graphite can also be produced synthetically. The of carbonaceous materials produces so-called “graphitizable carbons”,
