graphite fluoride is a typical molecular crystal, its cas number is [51311-17-2]. under normal conditions, the color is cream white or gray. it is non-toxic, non-burning, non-corrosive, has good chemical stability.

graphite fluoride is an emerging industrial material and a deep-processing graphite product, because of its unique physical and chemical properties; it is now the major focus of research. it can be widely used in battery-conductive materials, electrode materials, solid lubricants, water-repellent finish thinning, release agent, a nuclear reactor materials etc.

graphite fluoride is a material formed by high-temperature reaction of fluorine gas (or hydrogen fluoride) with graphite, charcoal, or pyrolytic carbon powder. it is a covalent graphite compound using fluorine atom as the intercalation material. the molecular formula of graphite fluoride is (cfx)n, x is a variable value, which is between 0~1.25. there are 3 types of graphite fluoride are known currently: (cf)n, (c2f)n and (c4f)n.

there are two main types of graphite fluoride we can provide (other types contact us):

1) for batteries: fluorine-to-carbon ratio is 0.8 (± 20%), is used as a high energy density cathode material in lithium batteries and lithium fluoride batteries of the “br” type.

2) for lubrication: fluorine-to-carbon ratio is 1.1 (± 10%), is used as solid lubricant.
