Abstract: Provided is a wound body of a commingled yarn, the wound body being capable of effectively suppressing fraying and sagging, disorder of a lower layer, or breakage of the commingled yarn during winding or use. Also provided is a method for manufacturing the wound body.

Abstract: To provide a novel material that maintains suppleness which is the advantage of a material using fibers and has a low thermal shrinkage ratio, and a method for producing the material, a partially welded material using the material, a composite material, and a method for producing a molded product.

Abstract: Provided is a commingled yarn having a dispersing property and having a smaller amount of voids, a method for manufacturing the commingled yarn, and a weave fabric using the commingled yarn. The commingled yarn comprises a continuous thermoplastic resin fiber, a continuous reinforcing fiber, and a surface treatment agent and/or sizing agent, comprises the surface treatment agent and/or sizing agent in a content of 2.0% by weight or more, relative to a total amount of the continuous thermoplastic resin fiber and the continuous reinforcing fiber, and has a dispersibility of the continuous thermoplastic resin fiber and the continuous reinforcing fiber of 70% or larger.
