Provided is a method of producing a silicon compound material, including the steps of: storing a silicon carbide preform in a reaction furnace; supplying a raw material gas containing methyltrichlorosilane to the reaction furnace to infiltrate the preform with silicon carbide; and controlling and reducing a temperature of a gas discharged from the reaction furnace at a predetermined rate to subject the gas to continuous thermal history, to thereby decrease generation of a liquid or solid by-product derived from the gas. |
