Abstract:Graphite intercalated compounds (GICs) with different stage numbers are prepared chemically from highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG), natural flaked graphite (FG) and nitric acid. Exfoliated graphite samples (EG-T) are synthesized from GICs via water treatment followed by thermal shock. The aim of this work is to investigate the dependence of the inner EG-T pore structure on the extent of oxidation and type of graphite by processing scanning electron microscopy (SEM) micrographs of EG-T cross sections.
