  • Publication number: 20090081462
    Abstract: The invention provides a long fiber filler reinforced resin pellet composed of a long fiber filler and a thermoplastic resin blend. In the pellet, the long fiber filler is aligned to form a spiral with a central axis along the longitudinal direction of the pellet, and the pellet has a skin layer part with a lower content of the long fiber filler, and a core part with a higher content of the long fiber filler, thereby the cross-section of the core part is in a range of 30% to 70% of the cross-section of the pellet. The thermoplastic resin blend in the pellet is composed of polyphenylene ether and a thermoplastic resin other than polyphenylene ether.
