Carbon in graphite

C (graph ite), hP4, structural type. In comparison with the tetrahedral structure of C diamond a very different structure is adopted by carbon in graphite. [Pg.646]

The AlB2-type structure can be considered a filled-up WC structure type. The B atoms form a hexagonal net and centre all the A1 trigonal prisms. The arrangement of the boron atoms in their layers is the same as that of carbon in graphite (63 layers). (See also the nThSi2, tI12, description for a comparison between the planar... [Pg.688]

Boron Carbide, B4C coml prod called, tNor-bide, mp ca 2375°, d 2.52 is prepd by heating anhyd boric oxide B30, with carbon in graphite resistance furnace at ca 2500°. Its special interest is due to its remade able hardness jwhich lies on the Moh s scale betw thatjof silicon carbide and diamond. Used as an abrasive. Detailed description of this compd is given in Kirk Othmer 2(1948), 830-4(21 refs)... [Pg.71]

Carbon, although remarkable in the variety of structures that it can form, displays modest adjustability in the configuration of its bonds. Trivalent carbon in graphite can have D3h symmetry, but in fullerene shells only C3v, C3, Clv and Ct symmetry are... [Pg.137]

The simultaneous decomposition of pentachlorophenol and regeneration of activated carbon, using microwaves was reported [46], claiming that the quality of the carbon was maintained or actually increased after several adsorption/microwave-regeneration cycles. Carbon, in graphite form, has also been used as a microwave absorbent for the microwave pyrolysis of urea [47]. [Pg.574]

In graphite-moderated reactors another source of C is the (n, 7) reaction with C, which is present as 1.108 percent of the natural carbon in graphite ... [Pg.396]

Chemical analysis of the TT intercalate indicates that the ratio of TT to carbon in graphite was between 1 60 and 1 70. Since the chemical analysis determined only the hydrogen content of TT, the exact stoichiometry of the material is questionable. The nitrogen content was found to be less than 0.5%, indicating that the nitrate was completely displaced, and that little or no solvent inclusion occured. [Pg.286]

Thanks to experimental determination, we know the enthalpies of sublimation of numerous solids at ordinary temperature, such as sulfur, selenium, phosphorus, tin, etc. The only truly tricky point, in fact, is determining the enthalpy of sublimation of carbon in graphite (or diamond) form, about which there have been a great many studies conducted. We cannot be certain of the values that are currently accepted. [Pg.119]

The cutting of steel is a chemical action. The oxygen combines readily with the iron to form iron oxide. In cast iron, this action is hindered by the presence of carbon in graphite form, so cast iron cannot be cut as readily as steel. Higher temperatures are necessary, and cutting is slower. In steel, the action starts at bright-red heat, whereas in cast iron, the temperature must be nearer the melting point in order to obtain a sufficient reaction. [Pg.493]

X-ray diffraction furnishes a rapid, accurate method for identifying crystalline phases present in a material. Sometimes, it is the only method available for determining which of the possible polymorphic forms of a substance are present—for example, carbon in graphite or diamond. Differentiating among various oxides, such as FeO, FcjOj, and Fc304 or between materials present in such mixtures as KBr -i- NaCl, KCl + NaBr, or all four, is easily accomplished with X-ray diffraction, whereas chemical analysis indicates only the ions present, and not the actual state of combination. The presence of various hydrates is another possibility. [Pg.135]
