Between Order and Confusion: Clearing up Structural Misconceptions in Carbon Materials Nomenclature

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
Despite the versatile use of carbon materials, inconsistent terminology and inadequate characterization – especially regarding graphene structures based on sp2‐hybridized carbon atoms – often cause confusion. This perspective clarifies terms like graphite, graphitic carbon, non‐graphitic carbon, and amorphous carbon by aligning IUPAC definitions with X‐
