" /> graphite - CISMeF





Preferred Label : graphite;

IUPAC definition : An allotropic form of the element carbon consisting of layers of hexagonally arranged carbon atoms in a planar condensed ring system graphene layers The layers are stacked parallel to each other in a three-dimensional crystalline long-range order. There are two allotropic forms with different stacking arrangements, hexagonal and rhombohedral. The chemical bonds within the layers are covalent with sp2 hybridization and with a C–C distance of 141.7 pm. The weak bonds between the layers are metallic with a strength comparable to van der Waals bonding only.;

Scope note : the term graphite is also used often but incorrectly to describe graphite materials, i.e. materials consisting of graphitic carbon made from carbon materials by processing to temperatures greater than2500k, even though no perfect graphite structure is present.;
