Abstract

A starting pitch for carbon fibers, obtained by (A) mixing together (1) a heavy fraction oil boiling at not lower than 200.degree. C. obtained at the time of fluidized catalytic cracking of petroleum, (2) a hydrogenated oil selected from aromatic hydrocarbons of 2-10 rings having their nuclei partly hydrogenated and specific fractions boiling at 160.degree.-650.degree. C. and containing such aromatic hydrocarbons and (3) a heavy fraction oil boiling at not lower than 200.degree. C. obtained at the time of steam cracking of petroleum, to form a mixture of the oils (1), (2) and (3), and then (B) heat treating the thus formed oil mixture at 370.degree.-480.degree. C. and 2-50 Kg/cm.sup.2.G thereby to obtain the starting pitch.
