A phenolic resin molding material for molding a precursor of an amorphous carbon molded article which comprises a particulate phenolic resin having thermal plasticity coated with a low-surface tension substance containing no metallic substance; a transparent precursor of an amorphous carbon molded article which comprises a homogeneous phenolic resin homogenized by molding under a highly flowing state and has few large voids and a low metal content; a process for molding the precursor which comprises molding the phenolic resin molding material with its water content being controlled by molding, i.e., kneading followed by shaping under a highly flowing state, such as transfer molding, extrusion, injection molding or injection compression molding; and a process for producing an amorphous carbon molded article which comprises carbonizing the precursor by burning. The amorphous carbon molded article produced by the present invention is suitably used as crecibles or Raschig rings in the fields of metallurgical and chemical industries, and as plasma etchers, susceptors or substrates of electronic parts in the electronic industry field.

Precursor of amorphous carbon molded article

A resin composition for powder coatings that comprises a composition (A) and a blocked polyisocyanate compound (B), the composition (A) being based on both a carboxyl group containing polyester resin having a hydroxyl value of 10 to 100 and a softening point of 50.degree. to 150.degree. C. and a glycidyl group containing acrylic resin having a hydroxyl value of 30 to 150 and a softening point of 50.degree. to 150.degree. C., and further containing a copolymer prepared by reaction between said polyester and acrylic resins. This resin composition is capable of providing an ideal paint film that possesses the features of a paint film prepared from polyester resins (high degrees of smoothness, gloss and strength) and those of a paint film prepared from acrylic resins (high levels of hardness, stain resistance and weatherability).
