Amorphous graphite - this form [of natural graphite] is the product of coal's thermal metamorphism. It comes in the form of powder. It is also known as meta-anthracite. 3, record 1, English, - amorphous%20graphite
Record number: 1, Textual support number: 1 OBS
The term "amorphous graphite" is a contradiction in terms. All graphite is crystalline by definition; therefore it is impossible for graphite to be amorphous. However, the term was applied due to the anhedral (no visible crystallinity) morphology of this form of graphite. To the untrained eye a piece of amorphous graphite simply looks amorphous, like a lump of anthracite coal. 4, record 1, English, - amorphous%20graphite

Cependant son prix d'achat est beaucoup moins élevé. De fabrication quelque peu différente de celle des panneaux photovoltaïques cristallins, le silicium est «pulvérisé» sous forme de couche mince sur une plaque de verre à haute transmission ou sur un polymère souple. Les modules photovoltaïques amorphes sont constitués d'un cadre en aluminium de faible épaisseur, lorsque le silicium est «pulvérisé» sur une plaque de verre.

Deux formes de glace amorphe. La glace amorphe ou glace vitreuse est celle que l'on obtient en réalisant une trempe rapide de l'eau en dessous de 135 K. Elle a la densité de la glace cristalline. Mais il en existe une deuxième forme beaucoup plus dense, laquelle ne pèse pas moins de l,2g/cm³! Découverte seulement en 1984, le moyen de la fabriquer consiste à comprimer des cristaux de glace à basse température. Plus curieux encore : si l'on remonte sa température, cette glace explose littéralement à 125 K après une augmentation de volume de presque 30 %.
