Abstract:Neither of the two widely used staging models in the long history of intercalation chemistry, namely the classical Rüdorff-Hofmann model proposed in 1938 and the pleated-layer domain-modified one in 1969, can explain the intercalation reaction phenomena and mechanism logically. Taking the landmark potassium-intercalation reaction of graphite as a model case and two advanced monolithic graphitic/graphenic carbon foams as model electrodes, here we have revealed that the electrochemical storage of potassium in gr… Show more
