✦ Synopsis

The use of metal additives for the catalytic graphitization of chars prepared by high temperature, high pressure carbonization of anthracene, phenanthrene or biphenyl has been investigated. In particular, the extent and type of catalysis initiated by aluminum or beryllium has been examined. Quantitative X-ray intensity measurements have been performed to show the existence of at least two concurrent mechanisms of graphitization catalysis. Evidence for the preferential attack on the disorganized carbon by the graphitization catalyst has been found
