  • Patent number: 8163264
    Abstract: An expanded graphite is derived from a graphitic or partially graphitic starting material selected from the group consisting of natural graphite, compressed expanded graphite, partially oxidized graphite and/or graphite fibers having a BET surface area of >30 m2/g. The expanded graphite is obtained by reaction of the starting material with substances capable of intercalation or mixtures of substances capable of intercalation to give a compound designated as an intercalation compound and subsequent expansion in plasma.
    Type: Grant

    Date of Patent: April 24, 2012
    Assignee: SGL Carbon SE
    Inventors: Martin Christ, Reinhard Mach, Asmus Meyer-Plath, Heinz-Eberhard Maneck
  • Publication number: 20100116457
    Abstract: A method for producing a latent heat storage material from a graphitic starting material selected from the group consisting of natural graphite, expanded graphite, and/or graphite fibers, and from a phase-changing material selected from the group consisting of sugar alcohols, water, organic acids and the mixtures thereof, aqueous salt solutions, salt hydrates, mixtures of salt hydrates, salt hydrates with paraffins, inorganic and organic salts and eutectic salt mixtures, clathrates and alkali metal hydroxides, as well as mixtures of these materials. The graphitic starting material is treated with a plasma before being impregnated with the phase-changing material. A latent heat storage material is produced according to the method.
