From: Material properties and structure of natural graphite sheet

Results of CTE measurements in (a) in-plane and (b) through-plane directions. The relevant graphite crystal values \(CTE_{ab,gr}\) and \(CTE_{c,gr}\)41,42,43 are demarcated by the dotted lines. In (c) a schematic structure of NGS is shown, and (d) illustrates the deformation of a single cell wall with increasing temperature.
