โฆ Synopsis
Woodceramics are new porous carbon materials obtained by carbonizing wood or woody material impregnated with thermosetting resin such as phenol resin in a vacuum furnace. During the carbonizing process, thermosetting resin changes into glassy carbon, which has superior corrosion resistance and mechanical strength, reinforces the material and suppresses the fissures and warps (caused by the porous structure specific to wood) that develop during thermoforming. The dimension, weight decrease rate, and electrical characteristics depend on the thermoforming temperature. The manufacturing method of Woodceramics is introduced in this paper and various industrial uses, such as electromagnetic shields, are discussed.
