Abstract: A fiber-reinforced resin material used for molding a fiber-reinforced resin which includes a matrix resin and reinforcing fiber bundles A including chopped fiber bundles each including 100 or more single fibers, wherein the product of an average porosity within fiber bundles Pfav (?) and an average fiber bundle thickness tfav (mm) is 0 mm or more and 0.01 mm or less and a porosity of composite Pc (?) is 0.02 or more and 0.4 or less, and a method for producing the same. The fiber-reinforced resin material is a molding material excellent in terms of productivity and reduction in LCA, which can give high mechanical properties to a molded article using the molding material and further which is excellent also in flowability during molding.

Abstract: A partially separated fiber bundle includes a separated fiber section and an unseparated fiber section, being configured to give a ratio Amax/Amin of 1.1 or larger and 3 or smaller, when the number of fiber bundles contained in the width direction of the partially separated fiber bundle (fiber separating number: Nn) measured at a freely selected point Pn (where, n represents an integer of 1 to 100, and freely selected points Pn and Pn+1, excluding n=100, being 50 cm or more away from each other), is divided by a full width of Wn of the partially separated fiber bundle, to calculate the fiber separating number per unit width An, and assuming its maximum value as Amax and its minimum value as Amin.

Abstract: A reinforcing fiber mat includes reinforcing fiber bundles having an average fiber length of 5 mm to 100 mm, wherein reinforcing fiber bundles consisting of 86 or more fibers per bundle are contained at a weight content of more than 99 wt % to 100 wt % and the reinforcing fiber bundles contain single yarns by 500 fibers/mm-width or more and 1,600 fibers/mm-width or less and have a drape level of 120 mm or more and 240 mm or less.

Abstract: A reinforcing fiber bundle is a continuous reinforcing fiber bundle having a length of at least 1 m and is characterized by the number of monofilaments per unit width being at most 1,600/mm and the average number of fibers in the bundle being at most 1,000 in a region (I), and the drape level found in a region (II) being 120-240 mm. The continuous reinforcing fiber bundle has a length of at least 1 m and is characterized by the adhesion amount of a sizing agent (I) in the region (I) being 0.5-10% by weight and the drape level found in the region (II) being 120-240 mm. The continuous reinforcing fiber bundle has superior mechanical properties, formability into complex shapes, and continuous producibility.
