Materials Data on ReC by Materials Project
ReC is Tungsten Carbide structured and crystallizes in the hexagonal P-6m2 space group. The structure is three-dimensional. Re4+ is bonded to six equivalent C4- atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing ReC6 pentagonal pyramids. All Re–C bond lengths are 2.18 Å. C4- is bonded to six equivalent Re4+ atoms to form a mixture of distorted face, edge, and corner-sharing CRe6 pentagonal pyramids.
