Abstract
An apparatus for thermally-stabilizing a carbon material precursor having a heating apparatus which thermally-stabilizes a carbon material precursor, a thermometer for measuring a temperature in the heating apparatus, a water vapor concentration meter for measuring a concentration of water vapor in the heating apparatus, and a batch type thermal-stabilization apparatus for feedback-controlling the temperature in the heating apparatus by using the concentration of water vapor as an index such that generation of water vapor in a thermal-stabilization reaction of the carbon material precursor is completed and generation of water vapor in a partial oxidation reaction of the carbon material precursor is suppressed in a temperature range between a temperature range where the generation of water vapor is accelerated in the thermal-stabilization reaction and a temperature range where the generation of water vapor is accelerated in the partial oxidation reaction.
