孔質炭素材調製用としては例をみない。The present invention will be described in detail below. The heat insulating material for a vacuum furnace used in the present invention is made of a porous carbon material, which is formed by foaming and curing a resin to obtain a resin foam, which is not melted at a temperature of 2,000 ° C to 3,000 ° C. It is obtained by carbonizing or graphitizing in an active gas atmosphere or in vacuum, but it is more preferable to carbonize or graphitize at a temperature higher than the maximum operating temperature of the vacuum furnace in which it is used. The porous carbon material thus obtained is attached to the inner wall of the vacuum furnace as a heat insulating material. The vacuum furnace puts the material to be heated in it, then seals it and degasses it with a vacuum pump.
After that, the heater is used by energizing the internal heater to start heating. An important point of the present invention is to use an anionic surfactant together with a widely used nonionic surfactant as a foam stabilizer during resin foam preparation. The resin foam is prepared by using a thermosetting resin, a foaming agent, a curing agent and a foam stabilizer. As the resin used, a thermosetting resin, particularly preferably a resol type phenol resin is used, but the resin is not limited to this. As the foaming agent, a known vaporizable foaming agent such as a hydrocarbon such as propane or a halogenated hydrocarbon such as chloroform is used. As the curing agent, known ones such as an inorganic acid such as hydrochloric acid or an organic acid such as benzenesulfonic acid may be used alone or in combination. Examples of the foam stabilizer include nonionic surfactants such as general-purpose polyoxyethylene castor oil, and alkyl-substituted sodium benzenesulfonate such as sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate or higher alcohol sulfate such as alkyldiphenyl ether disulfonate. The anionic surfactant of is also used. Specifically, as a compounding ratio, 0.01 to 50 parts by weight of each of a foaming agent and a curing agent are added to 100 parts by weight of a resin, and a nonionic surfactant as a foam stabilizer is 0.0
0.01 parts by weight to 50 parts by weight of an anionic surface active agent together with 1 part by weight to 20 parts by weight are added simultaneously or sequentially and mixed and stirred, and the obtained creamy product is placed in a heat-insulating mold or the like. A resin foam can be obtained by supplying, foaming, and curing. As the foam stabilizer, a cationic surfactant such as an aliphatic amine or a nonionic surfactant such as polyoxyethylene castor oil is generally used. Although rarely an anionic surfactant is used when preparing a resin foam material, at least a nonionic surfactant and an anionic surfactant are used in combination to carbonize or graphitize, and a vacuum furnace insulation There is no example for preparing a porous carbon material used as a material.

間が短縮されるものと考えられる。A porous carbon material obtained by carbonizing or graphitizing a resin foam prepared by using a nonionic surfactant and an anionic surfactant together as a foam stabilizer uses a cationic or nonionic surfactant. When used as a heat insulating material for a vacuum furnace, it exhibits excellent characteristics that the vacuum deaeration time is significantly shortened. The mechanism of this action is not always clear, but when deaeration is carried out through the communication part of fine pores, if a nonionic surfactant and an anionic surfactant are used together, a cationic or nonionic surfactant is used. It is considered that the degree of communication of the fine pores in the porous carbon material is higher than that in the case where the agent or the like is used, and therefore deaeration is easily performed and the deaeration time is shortened.
