Abstract:The alkali metal intercalates of the layered compound 2s-tantalum disulfide were prepared from the respective hexamethylphosphoric triamide solutions of the metals. The c-lattice parameters of the intercalates increased with increase in the crystallographic radii of the metals. All intercalates prepared were superconductors, and the transition temperatures increased as the crystallographic radii of the metals became larger. The intercalates reacted with water to produce hydrogen gas and changed to different intercalates. These had properties similar to those of the corresponding alkali metal hydroxide intercalates prepared from aqueous solutions of the metal hydroxides. The alkali metal hydroxide intercalates, on the other hand, were found to be classified into two groups in terms of the c-lattice parameters; one having c-lattice parameters around 23.8 Å and the other 18 Å. Lithium and sodium hydroxide intercalates belong to the former type, and potassium, rubidium and cesium hydroxide intercalates, including ammonium hydroxide, to the latter. Dried lithium and sodium hydroxide intercalates were also classified in the latter group. In the former case the disulfide was found to intercalate the cations, conserving the ice-like structure of the surrounding water molecules. In the latter, the cations were intercalated in their naked or primary hydrated states, and the interlayer distances were governed by cointercalated hydroxide ions. The observed superconducting transition temperatures were similar for the intercalates with c-lattice parameters around 18 Å irrespective of the particular cation.
