Аннотация:Graphite foil (GF) is a widely used high-temperature sealing material, produced by pressing exfoliated graphite, which is prepared through the thermal treatment of expandable graphite. Expandable graphite, in turn, is obtained from graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) with strong Bronsted acids. However, the operational temperature of GF is limited by its oxidation threshold in the presence of atmospheric oxygen. This study focuses on enhancing the thermal stability of GF by utilizing GICs with HNO3/H3PO4. XRD analysis revealed that the intercalation of H3PO4 into GIC with HNO3 increases the interlayer spacing compared to HNO3 alone. Sequential water washing of GICs with HNO3/H3PO4, followed by thermal expansion, leads to the formation of phosphorus-containing exfoliated graphite. IR spectroscopy confirmed the presence of polyphosphoric compounds bonded to the graphite matrix via C-O-P bonds, formed through the decomposition of H3PO4. Thermogravimetric analysis of the resulting phosphorus-enriched GF demonstrated a tenfold reduction in oxidation rate and mass loss at elevated temperatures. Additionally, the oxidation kinetic was studied using thermogravimetric curves. The increased apparent activation energy of graphite oxidation indicates enhancement thermal stability of phosphorus-containing graphite foil, suggesting that phosphorus-modified GF is a promising candidate for high-temperature applications.
