  • Insulation materials made from carbon fibers have a high heat resistance and excellent insulating properties, so they are widely used as insulation for high-temperature furnaces such as single crystal pulling equipment and ceramic sintering furnaces.
  • Insulating materials using carbon fibers are widely used in the form of highly porous felt, paper products, etc., to suppress heat transfer through the carbon fibers.
  • felt is deformable, so it is used as a component that fills empty spaces to fill those spaces, or as an insulating material that surrounds other parts.

  • Felt can also be used as an insulating part with good shape retention by compressing it and then fixing it with a binder.

  • Comparative Example 2 A dispersion containing carbon fibers (average fiber diameter: 13 ⁇ m, average fiber length: 3.3 mm) and an organic binder (phenol resin) in a ratio of 100:20 (weight ratio, the organic binder is calculated as solid content) was molded by a papermaking method to obtain a sheet-like aggregate (thickness 1 mm) made of carbon fibers.
  • an organic binder phenol resin
  • Organic binder addition process Next, an organic binder dispersion liquid in which an organic binder (phenol resin) was dispersed in a solvent was added to the surface of the sheet-like aggregate made of carbon fibers having the flake graphite arranged thereon.
  • organic binder phenol resin
  • the obtained molded body was cut in the thickness direction, and the proportion of the area containing flake graphite was examined, which was found to be 3%. Furthermore, the area ratio of the flake graphite to the surface of the molded body was determined to be 30.8% on one main surface (first main surface) and 0% on the other main surface (second main surface).
