Japanese Patent JPS61877

B2

A process for producing a pitch used as a raw material for producing carbon fibers is disclosed. The process comprises the steps of carrying out catalytic cracking of a hydrogenated residual oil prepared by hydrogenation treatment of a petroleum heavy residual oil or a mixture composed of said hydrogenated residual oil and a hydrogenated distillate oil which is prepared by hydrogenation treatment of a reduced pressure distillate oil prepared by reduced pressure distillation of the petroleum heavy residual oil. The resulting cracking oil is then destilled to produce a high boiling point fraction having a boiling point of 300°C or more. The fraction is then subjected to thermal modification. The pitch is then utilized to produce carbon fibers which have desirable characteristics. The process is advantageous in that it makes possible the use of a wide variety of different types of oils in order to produce a pitch which can be utilized in producing carbon fibers having desirable characteristics.
