- [ Products / Processed Products ]
- Keyword:
- [ Fiber opening and spreading technology ] [ Thermoplastic ] [ thin ply ]
Point of the Proposed Technology
・Carbon fibers are opened and spread thinly and widely using the patent of Fukui Prefecture to produce the carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic prepreg at high rate and thus substantially increase the productivity.
Effect(s)
Cost reduction by 50%
Conventional Technology
・The process in which carbon fibers are impregnated in viscous thermoplastic resins costs high for manufacture of the prepreg.
New Technology
・The technology for opening and spreading of fibers is used to produce the carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic prepreg at high rate achieving the substantial reduction of the manufacture cost.
