## Abstract The hydrogen absorption process is studied in carbonaceous fibers produced from a mixture of methane and hydrogen. The absorption of the hydrogen was examined in two types of fibers, in βasβgrownβ state and after a process of desorption during an annealing to 1.473 K under vacuum. Later

β¦ Synopsis
A high resolution transmission electron microscopy study of fluorine-intercalated carbon fibers has been carried out on two types of host materials: high-temperature treated pitch-based and PANbased fibers. TEM images and corresponding
Fourier transforms have shown that only stage-l compounds and graphitic-type domains are detected in the experiment conditions. In particular, no interlayer spacing corresponding to higher staged materials have been noticed. The observed results can be correlated to the ratio of semi-ionic to covalent F-C bonding previously determined by XPS. The disorder mostly depends on the nature of the host fiber and on the amount of mobile species that may react with the graphene layers during the deintercalation process, which is favored by the high-vacuum conditions.
