After completely melting a resin containing a thermoplastic resin and adhering to the prepreg (104) so that a reinforcing fiber substrate (101) is impregnated with the molten resin, the resin is cured to obtain a matrix resin (105), thereby forming a CFRP layer (120) that serves as a fiber-reinforced resin material, and the CFRP layer is simultaneously compression-bonded to the metal member (110), so that a metal-CFRP composite body (100) in which the CFRP layer (120) and the metal member (110) are firmly bonded to each other is formed.

Abstract: This metal-FRP composite body comprises a metal member, an FRP layer and a bonding resin layer that is interposed between the metal member and the FRP layer. The bonding resin layer is a solidified product of a phenoxy resin (A) by itself, or alternatively, a cured product of a bonding resin composition that contains 50 parts by weight or more of the phenoxy resin (A) in 100 parts by weight of the resin components; and the bonding resin layer firmly bonds the metal member and the FRP layer to each other. The bonding resin composition may additionally contain 5-85 parts by weight of an epoxy resin (B) relative to 100 parts by weight of the phenoxy resin (A), and a crosslinking agent (C) that contains an acid dianhydride.
