  • Patent number: 10370507
    Abstract: Provided are a carbon fiber thermoplastic resin prepreg which is a carbon fiber prepreg obtained by impregnating a PAN-based carbon fiber in which the average fiber fineness of a single fiber is 1.0 dtex to 2.4 dtex with a thermoplastic resin, wherein the thermoplastic resin satisfies 20?(FM/FS)?40 (where FM: flexural modulus (MPa) of a resin sheet comprising only the thermoplastic resin, and FS: flexural strength (MPa) of the resin sheet), a method for manufacturing the same, and a carbon fiber composite material employing the carbon fiber prepreg.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9796590
    Abstract: Provided is a carbon fiber manufacturing method including a surface treatment step of ejecting an ozone solution in which ozone is dissolved in solvent from a fluid ejecting port toward a carbon fiber bundle and causing the ozone solution to pass between single fibers of the carbon fiber bundle so as to contact surfaces of the single fibers so that the surfaces of carbon fibers are treated by the ozone solution. Also, provided is a carbon fiber subjected to a surface treatment by the carbon fiber manufacturing method.

  • Publication number: 20150274860
    Abstract: A process for producing a flame-resistant fiber bundle, the process comprising a step in which a flame-resistant fiber bundle (1) having a single-fiber density ?F1 of 1.26 g/cm3 to 1.36 g/cm3 is brought into contact sequentially with a heater group having a surface temperature TH of 240° C. to 400° C. under the following conditions (A), (B), and (C) to obtain a flame-resistant fiber bundle (2) having a single-fiber density ?F2 of 1.33 g/cm3 to 1.43 g/cm3: (A) the heater Hn+1 with which the fiber bundle is brought into contact “n+1”-thly has a highter temperature than the heater Hn with which the fiber bundle is brought into contact “n”-thly; (B) the total contact time between the fiber bundle and the heater group is 10 seconds to 360 seconds; and (C) the contact time between the fiber bundle and each heater is 2 seconds to 20 seconds.
