Abstract
A new method of carbonization without heat treatment has been developed. Electrochemical reduction of hexachlorobuta-1,3-diene in aprotic solvents affords an electroactive black polymer film. The film consists of mainly carbon ( > 62%), and a small amount of chlorine is distributed heterogeneously in the film. Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis have revealed that a considerable part of the film has a turbostratic graphitic structure. Chemical polymerization of hexachlorobuta-1,3-diene by the Yamamoto method with magnesium and nickel complex forms fine carbonaceous powders.
