ABSTRACT:
Graphite fibers are exfoliated to produce a fiber of reduced density, increased diameter, and flexibility with respect to graphite fibers prior to exfoliation. The fibers may also be used in composite articles. A method of producing exfoliated graphite fibers intercalates the fibers and then exfoliates the intercalated fiber by heating.
