Abstract:Superfine graphite powder was prepared by ball‐milling exfoliated graphite containing anhydrous CuCI2 in planetary ball milling systems. Nano‐scale CuCl2 graphite intercalation compounds were synthesized by heating a mixture of anhydrous CuCl2 and graphite nanosheets. Scanning electron microscopy, energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy and high‐resolution transmission electron microscopy were performed to characterize the microstructures of stage‐1 nano‐scale CuCI2 graphite intercalation compounds. The structure… Show more
Graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) for the first time are used as the anode material for lithium‐ion batteries. They exhibit high reversible capacity with excellent cycle life.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
