A simple, thermodynamic model of intercalated graphite which allows for variation of in-plane intercalant density, and takes explicit account of volume variation, is presented. Assuming random occupation of intercalant atoms pressure-temperature-concentration phase diagrams are calculated. The model is capable of explaining pressure-induced staging transformation, the appearance of fractional stage at high pressure, and other experimentally observed effects in alkali-metal-graphite compounds.
