  • Method of producing fiber-reinforced composite material, resin base material and preform
    Patent number: 11225037
    Abstract: A production method for a fiber reinforced composite material includes heating a preform formed by laminating a prepreg layer (I) including a reinforcement fiber (A) and a thermosetting resin (B-1) with a resin layer (II) including a thermosetting resin (B-2) and a solid additive (C) to cure the thermosetting resin (B-1) and the thermosetting resin (B-2), the cured resin layer (II?) formed by curing the resin layer (II) having an average thickness of 35 ?m or more and 300 ?m or less.
