Fluorogermanium(IV) salts of graphite. A system in equilibrium with elemental fluorine
Abstract
Pyrolytic graphite is not intercalated by GeF4 alone but is intercalated by GeF4–F2 mixtures to yield, at the intercalation limit, at 20 °C, a first-stage material, C12GeF5–6, which is in equilibrium with gaseous fluorine.
