Method for cooling aged board material
 A method of cooling board materials of inorganic substance wherein after aging treatment in an autoclave using saturated steam of high temperature and high pressure, the board material is left in the autoclave and the pressure therein is reduced to less than one atmosphere, and then the reduced pressure is retained at a stationary state until the temperature of the board material falls to about the temperature at which water does not boil, and then removing the board material from the autoclave. The board material may also be subjected to a drying treatment by alternately supplying saturated steam and reduced pressure after aging and prior to cooling.
