A high thermal conduction insulator exhibiting thermal conductivity,
insulating properties and heat radiating properties is produced by
supplying a molding material composed of an insulating resin, a
diamagnetic material powder and a paramagnetic material (inclusive of
ferromagnetic material) powder, and exhibiting fluidity into a mold, and
applying a magnetic field to the molding material in the mold to orient
clusters, each being composed of diamagnetic material particles of the
diamagnetic material powder, which are joined together like a chain,
along directions of lines of a magnetic force, and draw the paramagnetic
material (inclusive of ferromagnetic material) powder with the magnetic
force along one of mold surfaces of the mold, thereby forming a heat
radiating layer. Heat transmitted from a facing member to one surface of
the insulator is speedily transmitted to the other surface thereof via
the clusters, and is effectively radiated from the heat radiating layer
existing in the other surface.
