  • morphological modification which can manifest in the alteration of the dimensions, aspect ratio, shape, optical appearance, or form of phase domains in substances (e.g. expansion of layered materials) and chemical modification (functionalization) altering at least one feature of the chemical constitution of a material which includes introduction of functional groups (e.g. 0-, N-, S-, P- Si-, H-, C-containing groups) and/or functional coatings to a material or introduction of heteroatoms (e.g. B or N) into the atomic structure of the materials.

  • US 2013/0022530 A1 describes a process for the production of exfoliated graphite, involving providing a graphite intercalation compound and exfoliating the graphite intercalation compound through a plasma which is at a of at least 6000°C to bring the graphite intercalation compound to a temperature between about 1600°C and about 3400°C.
  • These methods described in the state of the art are either suitable for low-energy plasma (e.g. capacitive glow discharge) modification at variable reaction times or for high-energy plasma modifications using plasma torches for short reaction times of usually less than one second.

  • US 2013/0022530 A1 states that the residence time of the treated materials in the reactive zone should not exceed 0.2 s. Once the material is out of the reactive zone no further modification is possible. Thus the flexibility of such methods for material treatments is limited.

  • a further advantage is that the particles (P1 ) are more homogeneously exposed to the reactive gas phase in the reactive zone (RZ) under these conditions, since the gas flow in apparatus (A1 ) is not continuous anymore due to the pulse of (G2), so that the particles are prevented from forming porous agglomerates as described above.
