Ll. Vovchenko et al., Electrical resistivity of graphite intercalation compounds with SbCl5 and ICl near phase transitions, INORG MATER, 34(12), 1998, pp. 1222-1226
Phase transitions in the intercalant layer of graphite intercalation compou
nds with SbCl5 and ICI were studied in the temperature range 77-300 K. In S
bCl5-intercalated disordered pyrolytic graphite, the SbCl6 phase was found
to turn from, a quasi-crystalline to quasi-liquid state at 265-275 K. An an
alogous transition in the ICI layer was observed at 290-320 K for both high
ly oriented and disordered graphites.
