Graphite intercalation compounds are formed by inserting guest molecules or ions between sp 2-bonded carbon layers. These compounds are interesting as synthetic metals and as precursors to graphene.

Two-dimensional (2D) graphene has attracted much interest in fundamental research and technological development due to its extraordinary electrical, mechanical, thermal and optical properties ...

Here's a quick follow up to my last video about intercalated graphite and it's use in intumescent, fire resistant products (seen here: • Fireproof Expanding Graphite ). This pipe collar uses strips of ...
