Seal, if the end of nsta graphite-intercalation compounds.

摘要

Agasket or other sealing member containing intercalated graphite exhibits improved strength and safety properties and simplified manufacture. Such a gasket may be formed by filling a mold of the appropriate shape with intercalated graphite powder and applying sufficient pressure and heat to produce a coherent mass. The properties of an intercalated graphite gasket may be further improved by incorporating metal reinforcement, metal powders, organic polymers ceramic powders or even exfoliated graphite into the intercalated graphite gasket.
