A carbon powder is disclosed with 40 to 75% by weight QI or more than 90% by weight TI, an optical anisotropy of less than 50% by volume, a start of softening between 200.degree. and 300.degree. C., and an oxygen content of more than 2% by weight, and which can be used for without binding agent the production of shaped carbon bodies. The carbon powder is produced by means of distillation from bituminous product at a maximum of 5 mbars and a final temperature of at least 400.degree. C., grinding of the distillation residue to a particle size of less than 30 .mu.m, and oxidation of the powder into the particle core.
