▎ 摘　　要

NOVELTY - Flaky graphite is manufactured by immersing carbon material which has graphene laminated structure in liquid containing liquid substance whose surface tension at 20 degrees C is less than or equal to 50 mN/m, irradiating electromagnetic waves to carbon material immersed in liquid, and heating carbon material by irradiation of electromagnetic waves. Carbon material is thinly sliced, without vaporizing liquid in contact with the carbon material, by heating carbon material at temperature lower than boiling point of liquid. USE - Manufacture of flaky graphite for flaky graphite resin compound material (claimed). ADVANTAGE - Flaky graphite can be easily and reliably manufactured, without requiring reduction process. Flaky graphite resin compound material with excellent physical properties can be produced. DETAILED DESCRIPTION - INDEPENDENT CLAIMS are included for: (1) flaky graphite obtained by the manufacturing method; (2) flaky graphite dispersion liquid; and (3) flaky graphite resin compound material containing flaky graphite and resin.
