Because graphite is a non -polar material, it is difficult to use the small polar organic or inorganic acid intercourse alone, so oxidant is usually used. The chemical oxidation method is generally soaked in the solution of the natural scales in the solution of the oxidant and plug -in agent. Under the action of a strong oxidant, graphite is oxidized, making the macromolecular molecule of the graphite layer into a plane macromolecular with a positive charge. Due to the extrusion effect of the iconic charging between the plane macromolecules with a positive charge, the spacing between the graphite layer increases, and the plug -in agent is inserted between the graphite layer and becomes a graphite.
When heating at high temperature, puffed graphite will quickly shrink, and the contraction multiple is as high as tens to hundreds or even thousands of times. The apparent volume of shrinking graphite reaches 250-300 ml/gram or more. The contracted graphite is worm -like, with a size of 0.1 to a few millimeters. It has a large number of common mesh micropores inside. It is called a shrinking graphite or graphite worm. Shining graphite has many special excellent performance. Graphite and its expansion graphite can be used in industrial sectors such as steel, metallurgy, petroleum, chemical machinery, aerospace, atomic energy, etc., and their application scope is very common. For example, expansion graphite can be used as flame retardants and products for flame retardant materials and products, such as fireproof plastic products and fire -resistant anti -static coatings.
