Fig. 2: XRD analysis of PVDC treated with high-temperature pulses.
From: Catalysis-free transformation of non-graphitising carbons into highly crystalline graphite
a Magnification of the {002} reflection from the five-pulse sample showing the disordered (D), turbostratic (T) and graphitic (G) components. b Magnification of the 6-pulse sample demonstrating a high degree of 3D order. c Full XRD patterns for different number of pulses. Dotted lines indicate graphite reflections: from left to right, {002}, {100}, {101}, {004}, {110}, {112}, {006}. d Percentage of turbostratic and graphite phases as computed from the intensity ratios of the {002} reflection. The date at which the heat treatment occurred has been included for each sample. The asterisk indicates a sample produced using a different graphite tube.
