Publication number: 20170159212Abstract: System and method of producing a fiber-reinforced composite material for preventing void formation and improving mechanical properties such as strength and modulus of elasticity are described. The fiber-reinforced composite material contains a thermoplastic resin as a matrix resin and is formed using reinforcing fibers, in particular, a sheet of fiber substrate such as a woven fabric of reinforcing fibers, or a yarn bundle of a fiber substrate of reinforcing fibers. The fiber-reinforced composite material is composed of a resin-laminated substrate which includes a resin-filled substrate formed by filling spaces between fibers in a sheet or a strand of a fiber substrate with thermoplastic polyurethane filler, and a matrix resin layer composed of a thermoplastic resin disposed on the surface of the resin-filled substrate. The added amount of the thermoplastic polyurethane filler to the fiber substrate is from 10 to 30 vol % with respect to the volume of the fiber substrate.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 11, 2015Publication date: June 8, 2017Inventors: Hitoshi KAZAMA, Atsushi SUMIDA

Patent number: 8715451Abstract: [Problem to be Solved] When a wood raw material is heat-pressed in order to produce a woody material or woody board, steam is generated in an interior of the wood raw material. The heat-pressed wood raw material is then decompressed with the steam staying in the interior of the wood raw material. This causes a puncture or a rupture of the woody material. The puncture occurs in the last phase of the production process, thus spoiling the entire production process. In order to avoid the puncture, the wood raw material needs to be dried completely. This requires a large amount of energy.Type: GrantFiled: October 19, 2009Date of Patent: May 6, 2014Assignees: Forestry and Forest Products Research Institute, Swood Company LimitedInventors: Hideaki Korai, Atsushi Sumida, Takayoshi Osada, Osamu Yasuda, Keishi Tanaka
