High Purity (>99.9%) Graphite Nanopowder and Micropowder
A naturally occurring form of crystalline element carbon with versatile applications from lubricants to nuclear reactors
| |
Graphite (CAS number 7782-42-5), one of the most stable forms of carbon under standard conditions, is a naturally occurring form of crystalline element carbon.
Graphite powders possess many unique physical and chemical properties such as refractoriness, high structural strength at high temperature, high thermal shock resistance, high thermal and electrical conductivity, low thermal expansion, and good chemical resistance. Graphite has both metallic and non-metallic properties and is readily soluble in iron. The combined unique property of graphite makes its wide applications from common pencils, zinc-carbon batteries, lubricants, paints, welding rods, desulfurizing agents, facings, refractories, marking instruments, batteries, bearings, conductive coatings, and crucibles to electrodes.
With such high purities, graphite powders are also suitable for liquid exfoliation or intercalation to either produce single layer/few layers graphene nanosheets or fill the spaces with cations i.e., Li between the layers of graphite.

More on Graphite Powder
The carbon atoms in graphite are linked in a hexagonal network which forms sheets that are one atom thick. The sp2 hybridized graphene layers are linked by rather weak van der Waals forces and π–π interactions of the delocalized electron orbitals. These sheets are poorly connected and easily cleave or slide over one another if subjected to a small amount of force, giving graphite a very low hardness, perfect cleavage, and slippery feel, which is opposite to the hard feel of diamond (sp3 bonding).
