Thermally disappearing resin particle

Abstract

It is an object of the present invention to provide a thermally disappearing resin particle and a thermally disappearing hollow resin particle which can be decomposed at a low temperature in a short time and do not cause deformation or cracking of a sintered body to be obtained in the case of using as a binder for a ceramic or a lightening material; a method of producing the thermally disappearing hollow resin particle; a ceramic composition which can be degreased and fired at a low temperature in a short time and gives a molded body with a high porosity without deformation or cracking even in the case a large quantity of a pore-forming material is used; and a method of producing a porous ceramic filter. The present invention is directed to a thermally disappearing resin particle, which contains a polyoxyalkylene resin, and 10% by weight or more of the whole particle disappearing within an hour by heating at a prescribed temperature in a range from 100 to 300° C.
