PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for producing a silicon carbide shaped article, by which the SiC shaped article having an arbitrary shape, an arbitrary thickness and a high density can by produced at a low cost. SOLUTION: This method for producing a SiC shaped article, characterized by bringing an expanded graphite sheet having a bulk density 0.5 to 1.6 into contact with molten silicon and reacting them at a temperature not lower than the melting point of the silicon in the inert atmosphere of nitrogen, helium, argon or the like under the atmospheric pressure or under a reduced pressure of <=1 arm to produce to SiC product. |
