Abstract
New dark blue ternary intercalation compounds have been synthesized by heating graphite with liquid sodium in presence of a halide in the so lid state. Sodium has intercalated with its chloride leading to compou nds of stages 4 and 3, with its bromide to a third stage phase; sodium and iodine cointercalation has led to second stage products often inv olving a mixture of phases. The composition, structure, stability and electrical resistivity of the products have been studied.
