Abstract

PURPOSE:To impart isotropy to a composite material with the ground and graphitized product of small mesophase spheres. CONSTITUTION:When a graphite material is produced by carbonizing and graphitizing small mesophase spheres, the small mesophase spheres are ground before carbonized or graphitized. The graphite material is obtained by a method comprising grinding the small mesophase spheres and subsequently carbonizing and graphitizing the ground product at a temperature of 450-1500 deg.C, or by a method comprising carbonizing the small mesophase spheres at a temperature of 450-1500 deg.C, grinding the carbonization product, and subsequently graphitizing the ground product at a temperature of 1500-3000 deg.C. The carbonization and the graphitization are performed under a non-oxidative atmosphere such as an inert gas atmosphere. The obtained graphite material has an average particle diameter of approximately 1-20mum.

On the other hand, it has been clarified that when a graphitized mesophase spherule is added to a resin composition, a new function that cannot be exhibited by a conventional graphite material is exhibited. However, among the mesophase small spheres having a particle size distribution of about 1 to 100 μm, those having a particle size of 20 μm or more require a binder in an amount more than necessary when used as a resin composite material, and thus are usually used. However, in order to make effective use of them, it is possible to crush and use the mesophase microspheres.

Further, in the graphite material, it may be considered to grind the graphitized mesophase spheres in order to reduce the anisotropy of the mesophase spheres. However, when the graphitized mesophase spherules are crushed, cleavage occurs in the orientation plane of the graphite crystal structure, and the spheroidal, hemispherical, and mortar-like shapes are formed. Therefore, it is difficult to obtain a homogeneous mixture even when the graphitized mesophase spherules are pulverized and added to a resin, etc., and the obtained composite material exhibits anisotropy, and it has various properties. Sexuality occurs. In addition, the crushed surface of the mesophase spherules has an edge due to crystal destruction, which increases the specific surface area of the crushed material.Therefore, it is necessary to use an excessive amount of resin to obtain the strength required for the composite material. is there. Therefore, the original function of the resin composite material is impaired. Furthermore, the impact during pulverization causes a change in the crystal structure, and only pulverized products having physical properties different from those of the graphitized product before pulverization can be obtained.

If the average particle size of the pulverized product is less than 1 μm, the particle size is too small and the particle size is close to that of carbon black, and the amount of oil absorption increases, which makes it difficult to uniformly mix with the resin. The function may not be effectively expressed even if it is turned into a solid. Further, if the average particle size exceeds 20 μm, it is difficult to secure sufficient strength of the composite material with a normal addition amount, so that it becomes necessary to use more resin than necessary, and the original function of the composite material is It is easily damaged.

Carbonization may be carried out under the above conditions,
Preferably, in a non-oxidizing atmosphere, particularly an inert atmosphere, the final temperature reached is 450 to 1500 ° C., more preferably 60.
It can be performed at about 0 to 1500 ° C. When the treatment temperature is lower than 450 ° C, when the mesophase spherules are crushed for carbonization and graphitization, uncarbonized aromatic compounds remaining in the mesophase spherules flow out, and they serve as a binder to pulverize the mesophase spherules. The spheres may be re-sintered or the effluent may stick to the graphitization furnace and damage it. When the mesophase spherules are carbonized as they are, they are usually carbonized in a carbonization furnace equipped with an effluent treatment device, so that they are not particularly serious problems. Further, when the treatment temperature exceeds 1500 ° C., the heat treatment is finally performed again at a temperature higher than that in the graphitization furnace, which is not economical.

When the mesophase spherules are pulverized and then carbonized, or when the mesophase spherules are carbonized as they are, the surface of the pulverized mesophase spherules is slightly oxidized to avoid sintering during carbonization. However, it is desirable to control the amount of caking components. The oxidation treatment is carried out, for example, in an oxidizing atmosphere of oxygen, air, carbon monoxide, etc.
This can be performed by heat treatment at a temperature of about 00 to 400 ° C.

When carbonizing a pulverized product of mesophase spherules, an uncarbonized aromatic component generated from the mesophase spherules seems to exude to the fracture surface of the pulverized mesophase spherules. If such exudate is carbonized, the edge of the fractured surface can be covered and the crushed material can be made into a shape close to a spherical shape, probably because the fractured surface at the time of crushing is covered with the exudate at the exuded portion. Therefore, even if pulverized, there is an advantage that the specific surface area of the graphitized product does not increase so much.

For the graphitization of the carbide or pulverized product, the heating system and type of the graphitization furnace are not particularly limited as long as the furnace can reach a predetermined temperature. Examples of the graphitization furnace include an Acheson furnace, a direct current graphitization furnace, and a vacuum furnace.

In this way, in the process leading to graphitization,

In particular, when the carbonization treatment is performed and the graphitization treatment is performed after the pulverization step, the edge portion of the pulverized powder or granules is selectively oxidized, and the effect of forming a more spherical shape is great. By such graphitization treatment, a graphite material having properties similar to those of the graphitized mesophase spheres can be obtained.
