Abstract

Abstract A conductive coating composition comprising a graphite intercalation compound, carbon black, a binder, and a solvent is provided. The graphite intercalation compound is prepared by a process comprising reacting a dried metal chloride, a salt capable of forming a molten salt together with the metal chloride, and a graphite in a molten state in a chlorine gas stream under atmospheric pressure or a process comprising reacting a dried metal chloride, a salt capable of forming a molten salt together with said metal chloride, a salt capable of forming a double salt in a gas phase together with the metal chloride, and a graphite in a molten state in a chlorine gas stream under atmospheric pressure.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 3
Claim 1
Independent Claim 148 words
A process for preparing a graphite intercalation compound comprising reacting together, under substantially molten conditions, including a temperature of about 380° to 450° C., a dried metal chloride selected from the group consisting of copper chloride, cadmium chloride, cobalt chloride, nickel chloride and chromium chloride; a metal salt, capable of forming a molten salt by reaction with said metal chloride, selected from the group consisting of potassium chloride and sodium chloride; and graphite having a particle size of about 20 to 70 microns, in a chlorine gas atmosphere at about atmospheric pressure; wherein said metal chloride is present in an amount of at least 0.5 mole per mole of graphite, in excess of the proportion of metal chloride which would be present at the eutectic point of the molten metal salt, but not sufficient to cause a solid phase of said metal chloride in said molten reaction system.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 148 words
A process for preparing a graphite intercalation compound comprising reacting together, under substantially molten conditions, including a temperature of about 380° to 450° C., a dried metal chloride selected from the group consisting of copper chloride, cadmium chloride, cobalt chloride, nickel chloride and chromium chloride; a metal salt, capable of forming a molten salt by reaction with said metal chloride, selected from the group consisting of potassium chloride and sodium chloride; and graphite having a particle size of about 20 to 70 microns, in a chlorine gas atmosphere at about atmospheric pressure; wherein said metal chloride is present in an amount of at least 0.5 mole per mole of graphite, in excess of the proportion of metal chloride which would be present at the eutectic point of the molten metal salt, but not sufficient to cause a solid phase of said metal chloride in said molten reaction system.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 67 words
The process as claimed in claim 1 further including in said reaction system, about 1 to 3% by weight, based on the total weight of said metal chloride and said salt capable of forming a molten salt therewith, a salt which is capable of forming a double salt in the gas phase with said metal chloride selected from the group consisting of aluminum chloride and iron chloride.
