As a method for producing such carbonaceous whiskers, a method of gas-phase thermal decomposition of hydrocarbons in the presence of a transition metal catalyst (for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 117622/1983) is known. However, in this method, preparation of the catalyst and collection of generated whiskers are troublesome and time-consuming, and there are problems in obtaining homogeneous whiskers.Furthermore, the carbonaceous material obtained by this method Whiskers have a drawback in that the formation of graphite intercalation compounds is difficult to proceed because a concentric hexagonal carbonized network surface is developed parallel to the fiber axis direction and the tips thereof are closed.
