A Fourier-transform IR study of the structure of graphite fluorooxides

The functional groups present in the nano- and microstructural units of gra phite fluorooxides (GFO) were studied by the method of Fourier-transform IR (FTIR) spectroscopy in the frequency range 80-4000 cm(-1) The special feat ures of the spectral manifestations of the C-F, C-OH, and >C=O bonds and ch emisorbed moisture were compared for materials of various oxidation degrees (GFO-50, GFO-E, and GFP-2) comprising carbon, fluorine, oxygen, and hydrog en. The FTIR absorption and reflectance spectra were used to determine comm on features and differences in the physicochemical nature of various types of GFOs.
