  • Patent number: 11203673
    Abstract: A thermoplastic composite material comprising, a fiber bundle having a polypropylene emulsion impregnated therein and having a plurality of reinforcing fibers lined up in a predetermined direction, and satisfies the following conditions (1) to (4); and a formed body: (1) A void content of the thermoplastic composite material is 3% or less, (2) A fiber volume fraction of the thermoplastic composite material is 40% or more and 70% or less, (3) A bending strength of a laminated body, in which a plurality of layers of the thermoplastic composite material has been laminated so that the reinforcing fibers would be lined up in one direction, when bent in the fiber-axis direction and measured in conformity to JIS K7074, is 250 MPa or more, and a bending elastic modulus of the laminated body is 90 GPa or more, and (4) A variation coefficient of the bending strength, when measured at N=5 or more and calculated in conformity to JIS K7074, is within 7%.

  • Patent number: 11192346
    Abstract: A laminated body, containing a fiber-reinforced resin, in which a fiber-reinforced thermoplastic resin layer (1) containing fiber bundle of reinforcing fibers and a first thermoplastic resin, and a resin layer (2) containing a second thermoplastic resin, are alternately laminated, to form the fiber-reinforced resin, and the ratio of the indentation elastic modulus EIT-B of the first thermoplastic resin portion of the laminated body with respect to the indentation elastic modulus EIT-C of the second thermoplastic resin is 1.5 or more and 5.0 or less; a fiber-reinforced composite resin material; and a method of producing these.

  • Patent number: 8372574
    Abstract: A method of producing an electrostatic latent image developing toner includes: preparing a resin particle dispersion by polymerizing, in a water-based solvent, a polymerizable monomer that comprises a polymerizable monomer comprising a vinyl-based double bond; extracting a liquid from the resin particle dispersion by heating; mixing the distilled resin particle dispersion with a colorant particle dispersion prepared by dispersing a colorant; and aggregating the resin particles, the pigment particles and a release agent particles to form aggregate particles, and then conducting heating to fuse the aggregate particles.
