1. A kind of prepreg for CFRTP, "Commingled yarn" and "Commingled tape"
2. These prepregs have both suprerior impregnation property" and "textile-process ability"
3. These prepregs enabled producing various textile preforms for CFRTP.
Effect(s)
Strength: approx. 2 GPa (using PA, UD reinforcement)
Molding time: 5 min or less (1 mm thick molding)
Mitsubishi Gas Chemical Company, Inc. (role: resin fiber development and evaluation)
Gifu University (role: molding method development and evaluation)
Example of Application
・Primary and secondary structural members of automobiles
・Socket parts of prostheses
Technical Problems
Products will be provided in fibrous, striped impregnation or semi-impregnated commingled yarns.
Standard materials are 6k or a combination of 12k carbon fibers and PA resin (MXD10).
In addition to the above, various types of resin such as PP, PE, PA, PC, EP(TP) and PEI have been used.
Collaborator needed to Improve
・Companies related to press, etc. having knowledge on molding technology
・Companies which can jointly develop solutions with CFRTP members
