Abstract

PURPOSE:To decrease the hardness, coefficient of thermal expansion and electrical resistivity while maintaining the high density and high strengths by solvent fractionating a mixture of a carbon powder and a meso-phase microspherical material obtd. by thermally treating a pitch, and then calcining the resulting product. CONSTITUTION:A pitch, e.g. coal tar is thermally treated at 350-500 deg.C to give a meso-phase microspherical material. This material is mixed with a carbon powder (e.g. a needle coke powder) having an excellent graphitization property in an amt. of 5-100 pts.wt. based on 100 pts.wt. quinoline insolubles in the microspherical material. The resulting mixture is fractionated with a solvent (e.g. tar middle oil), and calcined at 200-450 deg.C in an inert atmosphere to give a raw material for a high-density, high-strength carbon material.

<Prior art> Carbonaceous mesophase spherules are mesophase spherules that are generated in optically isotropic pitch when coal tar pitch or petroleum pitch is heated at a temperature of 350 to 500°C. It is well known that it is separated from the pitch matrix by a solvent fractionation method and becomes a raw material for isotropic, high-density, and high-strength graphite materials.
According to Publication No. 25364, a part of the β component in the pitch is extracted together with the mesophase spherules by using a solvent such as benzene or oil in tar that has a slightly weak extraction power for the pitch when separating the spherules with a solvent. It has been shown that by allowing the material to remain and then calcining it at a temperature of 200 to 450° C. in an inert atmosphere, a raw material with excellent self-sintering properties can be obtained.

If the raw material obtained by this method is used, it can be molded, fired, and graphitized without using a binder, resulting in a bulk density of 1.85 g/cj or more and a bending strength of 800 kg/cj.
High-density, high-strength, and isotropic graphite materials with cJ or higher can be easily manufactured. However, since the above-mentioned carbonaceous mesophase spherules are not woody and graphitizable, the resulting graphite material has high marketability and strength, but has low hardness and thermal expansion coefficient.

Therefore, due to its high hardness, it has poor machinability and requires time and effort to process. Further, due to its large coefficient of thermal expansion, it is difficult to coat it with SIC.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a method for producing a raw material for a high-density, high-strength carbon material that makes it possible to reduce hardness, coefficient of thermal expansion, and specific electrical resistance.

<! ! I! Means for Solving the Problem> The present invention heat-treats pitch such as coal tar to generate mesophase small spheres, and then adds carbon powder to the mesophase small spheres (quinoline insoluble content).
This is a method for producing a raw material for a high-density, high-strength carbon material, which is characterized by adding and mixing 5 to 100 parts by weight with respect to the amount of fi, and then separating the mixture with a solvent and calcining it.

If the amount added/mixed is less than 5 parts by weight, the mixing effect will be small, and the ratio of reducing the hardness, thermal expansion coefficient, electrical resistivity, etc. of the graphite material produced by molding, firing, and graphitizing the mixed powder will be small. On the other hand, if it exceeds toofftIt, a problem arises in that the density, strength, etc. of the graphite material decreases. Therefore, the amount of carbon powder added is limited to 5 to 100 parts by weight per 100 parts by weight of mesophase microspheres (quinoline insoluble matter).

Next, β is made into a viscous component using a solvent such as oil in tar.
These mesophase spherules and carbon powder are separated from the pitch matrix together with the components. As the solvent, in order to leave the β component in the pitch, it is preferable to use a solvent that has a slightly weak extraction power against the pitch, such as benzene or oil in tar.
