  • Publication number: 20240025145
    Abstract: A molding base material has at least a fiber-reinforced resin prepreg layer, a fiber paper layer, and a partition layer interposed between the prepreg layer and the fiber paper layer; a molded product obtained using the same; and a production method therefor. The resulting product makes it possible to achieve high thermal resistance and heat insulation as well as improved overall space efficiency and weight reduction in a fiber-reinforced resin molded product.

  • Publication number: 20220266578
    Abstract: The present invention is a flame-resistant layered molded article in which one surface of a fiber sheet material containing at least infusible fibers A, particularly a fiber sheet material containing infusible fibers A and thermoplastic fibers B, is exposed to the outside of a molded article, and in which at least a part of the other surface side is joined to a thermoplastic resin C forming a molded article body. As a flame-resistant layered molded article, the present invention can realize to exhibit the high flame resistance and flame-shielding property that are required, and to ensure the desired strength and stiffness and good moldability that are required overall.

  • Patent number: 8276975
    Abstract: An FRP panel for an automobile, comprising a panel element to which a difference in rigidity and/or a difference in strength is provided between a first FRP layer on a first surface side and a second FRP layer on a second surface side on the opposite side of the first surface. The FRP panel for the automobile having a crushable structure suitable for absorbing impact can be realized, and the impact on a pedestrian in collision can be suppressed by properly absorbing the impact to protect the pedestrian.

  • Patent number: 8075048
    Abstract: A bonnet for an automobile, the bonnet having an outer member made from fiber reinforced plastic (FRP) and an inner member made from FRP, joined to the back-surface side of the outer, wherein the inner is separated into two parts in the forward and backward direction of a vehicle body. The bonnet can satisfy impact absorbing performance and predetermined required performance for deformation in a collision accident etc., and can improve easiness of production.

  • Patent number: 7497507
    Abstract: A bonnet for an automobile, having an outer member made from FRP and an inner member made from FRP and joined to the back-surface side of the outer member, wherein the outer member has a high-rigidity section having a rigidity higher than a rigidity of the central section of the outer member along an outer edge of the outer member, and the inner member is joined to the outer member at the high-rigidity section. While being achieved an advantage of weight lightening of the bonnet by making it from FRP, the rigidity at a required portion is efficiently increased without damaging moldability, a design feature of the bonnet surface can be maintained at a good level, and in addition, performance of the bonnet relating to the protection of a pedestrian at a collision accident etc. can also be sufficiently enhanced.

  • Patent number: 5112606
    Abstract: The present invention relates to methods of producing an antibody highly specific to a low-molecular weight substance such as amino acids, peptides, amines, steroids, etc. The invention also relates to a process for producing the same by forming a complex of the substance with colloidal metal particles and sensitizing a mammal with the complex. The antibody can be in the form of an antiserum containing the antibody. Since the antibody has a high specificity to the intended low-molecular weight substance, it is useful as a reagent for various immunohistochemical methods and immunoassays.
