Abstract
The woodceramics which are new porous carbon materials were obtained by carbonizing from thinned small log of Aomori HIBA (Thujopsis dolabrata S. et. Z. var. hondae M.) impregnated with phenol resin in a vacuum furnace. During the carbonization process, the resin changes into glassy carbon, which has superior property. The resin impregnation rate and bending strength depend on the types of board and density. In this paper, the manufacturing method of woodceramics made from thinned small logs of Aomori HIBA was introduced and some properties were examined.
