Abstract
The two temperature sealed tube method has been used to determine the isotherms on graphite of 9 metal chloride vapors at temperatures for which the saturation pressure is 1 atmosphere. There is some positive correlation between lower threshold pressure, higher composition near saturation and a bulk structure consisting of layers rather than individual molecules. A conjectural theory is presented for threshold pressure and the existence of stages. It suggests that an important step is the modification of the band structure by charge transfer between the two end basal planes and adsorbed adduct. The theory is used to discuss the above isotherms and other intercalation properties of graphite.
