  • Publication number: 20170239895
    Abstract: A production method for a fiber reinforced composite material includes heating a preform formed by laminating a prepreg layer (I) including a reinforcement fiber (A) and a thermosetting resin (B-1) with a resin layer (II) including a thermosetting resin (B-2) and a solid additive (C) to cure the thermosetting resin (B-1) and the thermosetting resin (B-2), the cured resin layer (II?) formed by curing the resin layer (II) having an average thickness of 35 ?m or more and 300 ?m or less.

  • Publication number: 20140343218
    Abstract: A method of making a carbon fiber structure including a carbon fiber is coated with a sizing at an amount X between 0.05 and 0.30 weight %. The sizing is formed of a heat resistant polymer or a precursor of the heat resistant polymer. The amount X of the sizing is expressed with a following formula: X = w 0 - w 1 w 0 × 100 where W0 is a weight of the carbon fiber with the sizing, and W1 is a weight of the carbon fiber without the sizing.
