In this research the relationship between graphitization ability and the carbon equivalent (CE %) of a cast iron have been investigated. The first series of moulds were cast at CE of 3.2% and pouring temperature of 1350°C. The other moulds were cast at different CE% with varying Si content. The graphitization ability( c ) was calculated using the thermodynamics aspects of graphitization and CE%...

Five carbons with different graphitization degrees, which were heat-treated at temperatures of 1273 to 3273K, were prepared. These carbons were bonded to nickel in a vacuum, using an RF-induction furnace, with joining temperatures of 1073 to 1273K. On the basis of the results of these experiments, the effects of the graphitization degree on the solid-state bonding of carbon to nickel were exami...

in this research, graphitization transformation of a commercial hypereutectoid steel called ck100 was studied by the dilatometric experiments at the range of 600 – 700 °c from prior martensitic structure. also the effect of quenching media on the initial graphitization time and completion of transformation has been discussed. also, graphitization transition from the different prior microstructu...

High surface area electrode materials are of interest for a wide range of potential applications such as super-capacitors and electrochemical cells. This paper describes a fabrication method of three-dimensional (3D) graphene conformally coated on nanoporous insulating substrate with uniform nanopore size. 3D graphene films were formed by controlled graphitization of diamond-like amorphous carb...

Catalytic graphitization for (14)C-accelerator mass spectrometry ((14)C-AMS) produced various forms of elemental carbon. Our high-throughput Zn reduction method (C/Fe = 1:5, 500 degrees C, 3 h) produced the AMS target of graphite-coated iron powder (GCIP), a mix of nongraphitic carbon and Fe(3)C. Crystallinity of the AMS targets of GCIP (nongraphitic carbon) was increased to turbostratic carbon...

Activated carbon was treated at 5 GPa up to 1600 C, and the structural evolution in the graphitization process was investigated. The graphitization temperature is equal to 1200 C at 5 GPa, reflected by X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns. Honeycomb-like structures in micron scale come into being in the high-pressure sintering temperature range of 100

Graphitized nanodiamonds were conveniently prepared by the laser irradiation of colloidal solution using various solvents. The nanodiamonds were converted into a fully graphitized onion-like structure, which became a cage-like mesoporous structure by the degradation of graphitic layers. Alcohols, acetone, and acetonitrile are more efficient solvents for the graphitization compared to water and ...

To be able to successfully measure radiocarbon with accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) in atmospheric aerosol samples, graphitization of small sample sizes (< 50 g carbon) must provide reproducible results. At Lund University, a graphitization line optimized for small samples has been constructed. Attention has been given to minimize the reduction reactor volume and each reactor is equipped w...
