Graphite Whiskers Derived from Waste Coffee Grounds Treated at High Temperature

Abstract Graphite whiskers (GWs) are obtained from coffee grounds (CGs) treated at 2500 °C for 1 h in the presence of Ar gas at 1 atm. The majority of the GWs formed inside the CGs shell are rod‐like with a conical tip with diameter and length in the range between 1 to 3 µm and 4 to 10 µm, respectiv...
