The rate of fluorine intercalation in graphite is larger in the present system than in other metal fluorides examined previously. X-ray diffraction data indicate that C,F belongs to a hexagonal system with a superlattice of a, = 2a, in the ab plane, accompanying some amount of a bi-intercalation pha

β¦ Synopsis
The graphite intercalation compound (GIG) of titanium fluoride has been prepared in a fluorine atmosphere. The GICs prepared from natural graphite and pitch-based carbon fiber were mostly stage-2 compounds with repeat distance 11.28-11.59 A and composition Cll_15TiF4.1_6 >. The ESCA spectrum indicates that intercalated Tip,-anions are mainly in a bridged state. The slight decrease in the repeat distance with increasing fluorine pressure is ascribed to the nestling of Tie-anions in benzene rings of carbon layers due to the increase in nonb~dging TiF;-anion. X-ray powder d~f~action data indicate the high regularity in the orientation of intercalated species between carbon layers. The highest electrical conductivity was 2.4 x lo) km-', which is 13 times higher than that of pristine HOPG.
