PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for manufacturing a small charcoal molded body reduced in powder missing and excellent in adsorption capability.SOLUTION: This method is the one for manufacturing the charcoal molded body formed by containing at least charcoal and a binder. A mixture of the binder and water where the concentration of the binder is 1.25-6 mass% is prepared. The charcoal is added to the mixture and is kneaded so that the charcoal and binder become in a range of 1:0.5 to 1:2 in a mass ratio, and a molding composition is prepared. The molding composition is poured to a mold and is heated and pressurized at 100-400°C and 70-500 kg/cm2.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】粉落ちが少なく、吸着能力にも優れる小型の炭成型体の製造方法を提供する。【解決手段】炭とバインダーとを少なくとも含んでなる、炭成型体を製造する方法であって、バインダーの濃度が1.25~6質量%である、バインダーと水との混合物を準備し、前記混合物に、炭を、前記炭と前記バインダーとが質量比において1:0.5~1:2の範囲となるように加えて混練して、成型用組成物を調製し、前記成型用組成物を、型に流し混んで100~400℃の温度且つ70~500kg/cm2の条件にて加熱・加圧を行う。【選択図】なし
