Description
本発明は、繊維強化樹脂製中空成形体の製造方法に関する。 The present invention relates to a method for producing a fiber-reinforced resin hollow molded body.
繊維強化樹脂(FRP)は様々な構造体に用いられており、例えばこの繊維強化樹脂製の中空成形体は、ゴルフクラブシャフト、テニスラケットフレーム等のスポーツ用品や、シートフレーム等の自動車部品に用いられている。 Fiber reinforced resin (FRP) is used in various structures. For example, a hollow molded body made of fiber reinforced resin is used for sports equipment such as golf club shafts and tennis racket frames, and automobile parts such as seat frames. It has been.
このような繊維強化樹脂製中空成形体は、従来、マンドレルとよばれる芯材の周囲に、プリプレグと称される未硬化の熱硬化性樹脂を含浸させた強化繊維シートを積層して巻きつけ、プリプレグの熱硬化性樹脂を硬化させ、マンドレルを抜き取ることによって製造されている。 Such a hollow molded body made of fiber reinforced resin has been conventionally laminated around a core material called a mandrel and laminated with a reinforcing fiber sheet impregnated with an uncured thermosetting resin called a prepreg, It is manufactured by curing a thermosetting resin of a prepreg and extracting a mandrel.
上記の方法では直線状の中空成形体は製造できるが、円弧状に湾曲しているような形状の成形体を製造することはできない。そこで、プリプレグを可撓性中空部材の周囲に巻きつけ、このプリプレグを予熱して熱硬化性樹脂の粘度を低下させ、このプリプレグを金型内にセットし、中空部材に圧力空気を送入しつつ熱硬化性樹脂を硬化させ、最後に中空部材を抜き取る方法が提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。 Although a linear hollow molded body can be manufactured by the above method, a molded body having a shape that is curved in an arc shape cannot be manufactured. Therefore, the prepreg is wound around the flexible hollow member, the prepreg is preheated to reduce the viscosity of the thermosetting resin, the prepreg is set in a mold, and pressurized air is fed into the hollow member. A method has been proposed in which a thermosetting resin is cured while the hollow member is finally extracted (for example, see Patent Document 1).
このような方法で成形体を製造する場合、金型にセットする際においてプリプレグは未硬化であるため、所定形状に形作る際に簡単に断面がくずれ、型締め時において金型の上型と下型の間の型割り面にて強化繊維のピンチング、すなわち繊維の噛み込みが発生してしまう。すると、得られた成形体において、型割り面に相当するその中央面に筋状のバリが生ずる。このような強化繊維のピンチングを防ぐため、金型の上型と下型の各々に強化繊維を配置しておき、可撓性中空部材を内装するように配し、硬化させることが考えられるが、この場合には、強化繊維のピンチングは防ぐことができるものの、型割り面において繊維の継ぎ手が目視できるようになる。 When manufacturing a molded body by such a method, the prepreg is uncured when it is set in the mold. Reinforcing fiber pinching, that is, fiber biting, occurs at the split surface between the molds. Then, a streak-like burr | flash arises in the center surface corresponded to a parting surface in the obtained molded object. In order to prevent pinching of such reinforcing fibers, it is conceivable that reinforcing fibers are arranged in each of the upper mold and the lower mold of the mold, and the flexible hollow member is arranged and cured. In this case, although the pinching of the reinforcing fiber can be prevented, the fiber joint can be visually observed on the dividing surface.
このようなバリもしくは継ぎ目は外観上好ましくなく、本発明はこのような外観上の欠点が生ずることなく繊維強化樹脂製中空成形体を製造することができる方法を提供することを目的とする。 Such burrs or seams are not preferable in appearance, and an object of the present invention is to provide a method capable of producing a fiber-reinforced resin hollow molded body without causing such appearance defects.
上記課題を解決するために1番目の発明によれば、強化繊維に熱硬化性樹脂を含浸させてなるプリプレグであって、前記熱硬化性樹脂を硬化深度5〜10%に予備硬化させたプリプレグの複数枚を可撓性中空芯材の周囲に積層状態で巻きつけ、冷却してプリフォームを形成後、このプリフォームを加温して軟化させた状態で金型内に入れ、前記芯材に空気を圧入しながら加熱して前記プリプレグを硬化させ、最後に芯材を取り除くことを特徴とする、繊維強化樹脂製中空成形体の製造方法が提供される。 In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, according to the first invention, a prepreg obtained by impregnating a reinforcing fiber with a thermosetting resin, wherein the thermosetting resin is pre-cured to a curing depth of 5 to 10%. Are wound in a laminated state around a flexible hollow core material, cooled to form a preform, and then the preform is heated and softened and placed in a mold, and the core material is There is provided a method for producing a fiber-reinforced resin hollow molded body, characterized in that the prepreg is cured by heating while pressing air into the core, and finally the core material is removed.
上記課題を解決するために2番目の発明によれば、可撓性シートと、強化繊維に熱硬化性樹脂を含浸させてなるプリプレグであって、前記熱硬化性樹脂を硬化深度5〜10%に予備硬化させたプリプレグの複数枚とを芯材の周囲に積層状態で巻きつけ、冷却して可撓性シートの中空チューブとプリフォームを形成し、芯材を取り除き、このプリフォームを加温して軟化させた状態で金型内に入れ、前記中空チューブに空気を圧入しながら加熱して前記プリプレグを硬化させ、最後に中空チューブを取り除くことを特徴とする、繊維強化樹脂製中空成形体の製造方法が提供される。 In order to solve the above problem, according to a second invention, a flexible sheet and a prepreg obtained by impregnating a reinforcing fiber with a thermosetting resin, the curing temperature of the thermosetting resin is 5 to 10%. A plurality of pre-cured prepregs are wound around the core in a laminated state, cooled to form a hollow tube and preform of a flexible sheet, the core is removed, and the preform is heated The fiber-reinforced resin hollow molded article is characterized by being placed in a mold in a softened state, heated while pressing air into the hollow tube to cure the prepreg, and finally removing the hollow tube. A manufacturing method is provided.
本発明によれば、あらかじめ所定の硬化深度まで予備硬化させたプリプレグを用いて成形を行うことにより、金型の型締め時において強化繊維の断面崩れを防止することができ、その結果、ピンチングを防止することができる。また、繊維の継ぎ目は1箇所のみにすることができ、この継ぎ目を得られる成形体の任意の部位に設定することができる。さらに、プリフォームの形成時に可撓性シートの中空チューブを同時に成形することにより、あらかじめ中空部材を製造して内装することの手間及びコストを廃止することができる。 According to the present invention, by performing molding using a prepreg that has been pre-cured to a predetermined curing depth in advance, it is possible to prevent the cross-section of the reinforcing fiber from being collapsed when the mold is clamped. Can be prevented. Moreover, the joint of a fiber can be made only at one place, and can be set at an arbitrary part of the molded body from which this joint can be obtained. Furthermore, by simultaneously forming the hollow tube of the flexible sheet at the time of forming the preform, it is possible to eliminate the labor and cost of manufacturing and installing the hollow member in advance.
以下、図面を参照して本発明を説明する。まず図1に示すように、芯材1の周囲にプリプレグ2を所定の厚みとなるよう複数枚、積層状態で巻きつけ、冷却してプリフォームを形成する。このプリプレグは強化繊維に熱硬化性樹脂を含浸させてなるものであり、繊維強化樹脂において一般に用いられているものを用いることができる。 The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. First, as shown in FIG. 1, a plurality of prepregs 2 are wound around the core material 1 in a laminated state so as to have a predetermined thickness, and cooled to form a preform. This prepreg is obtained by impregnating a reinforcing fiber with a thermosetting resin, and those generally used in fiber-reinforced resins can be used.
強化繊維としては、一般に高性能強化繊維として用いられる繊維を使用することができ、例えばカーボン繊維、アラミド繊維、炭化珪素繊維、アルミな繊維、ボロン繊維、ガラス繊維等が挙げられる。これらの強化繊維は、長繊維又は短繊維のいずれであってもよく、またこれらを2種以上混合してもよい。強化繊維の形状や配列についても限定されず、例えば単一方向、ランダム方向、シート状、マット状、クロス状、組みひも状等のいずれの形状、配列であってもよい。 As the reinforcing fibers, fibers generally used as high-performance reinforcing fibers can be used, and examples thereof include carbon fibers, aramid fibers, silicon carbide fibers, aluminum fibers, boron fibers, and glass fibers. These reinforcing fibers may be either long fibers or short fibers, and two or more of these may be mixed. The shape and arrangement of the reinforcing fibers are not limited, and may be any shape and arrangement such as a single direction, a random direction, a sheet shape, a mat shape, a cloth shape, and a braid shape.
熱硬化性樹脂としては、繊維強化樹脂において一般に用いられているもの、例えばエポキシ樹脂、ビニルエステル樹脂、不飽和ポリエステル樹脂等が挙げられるが、これらのうち特にエポキシ樹脂が好ましい。またエポキシ樹脂中に、エポキシ樹脂用の硬化剤を含ませてもよい。この硬化剤としては、エポキシ基と反応することができる活性基を有する化合物であればよく、例えばアミン類、酸無水物類、イミダゾール類等が知られている。 Examples of the thermosetting resin include those generally used in fiber reinforced resins, such as epoxy resins, vinyl ester resins, unsaturated polyester resins, and the like, and among these, epoxy resins are particularly preferable. Moreover, you may include the hardening | curing agent for epoxy resins in an epoxy resin. As the curing agent, any compound having an active group capable of reacting with an epoxy group may be used. For example, amines, acid anhydrides, imidazoles and the like are known.
芯材1は、可撓性中空体であり、例えばポリアミド樹脂、ポリエステル樹脂、シリコンゴム等のチューブを用いることができる。しかしながら、このような芯材はあらかじめ製造しておく必要がある。そこで、図2に示すように、芯材1とプリプレグ2の間に可撓性シート3を配置し、この可撓性シート3とプリプレグ2を芯材1の周囲に巻きつけることによって、プリフォームの形成の際に中空チューブを同時に成形することが好ましい。この際、芯材1は、例えば金属製の従来より用いられているマンドレル等を用いることができる。また可撓性シートとしては、テフロンゴム、シリコンゴム、ナイロン樹脂、テフロン樹脂等を用いることができる。
The core material 1 is a flexible hollow body. For example, a tube made of polyamide resin, polyester resin, silicon rubber, or the like can be used. However, such a core material needs to be manufactured in advance. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 2, a
本発明においては、プリプレグにおける熱硬化性樹脂をあらかじめ所定の温度で、硬化深度が5〜10%となるように熱処理を加えておくことを特徴とする。この熱処理温度は、使用する樹脂、硬化剤、加熱時間等によって異なるが、一般には80〜120℃である。なお、この硬化深度とは未硬化プリプレグ状態を深度0%とし、樹脂の誘電特性の変化から計測した値である。 In the present invention, the thermosetting resin in the prepreg is previously subjected to heat treatment at a predetermined temperature and a curing depth of 5 to 10%. The heat treatment temperature varies depending on the resin used, the curing agent, the heating time, and the like, but is generally 80 to 120 ° C. The curing depth is a value measured from a change in the dielectric characteristics of the resin when the uncured prepreg state is 0% depth.
こうして形成したプリフォームを図3に示す。このプリフォーム4において、可撓性芯材または可撓性シート3より形成された中空チューブの両端には空気圧入用のノズル5が埋設されている。
The preform thus formed is shown in FIG. In this preform 4,
このプリフォーム4を加温し、軟化させた状態で湾曲させ、図4に示すように、所定の断面形状を有する下型6に入れる。この軟化させるための加熱温度は、熱硬化性樹脂が軟化するが硬化しない温度であり、樹脂によって異なるが一般に60〜100℃である。
The preform 4 is heated and bent in a softened state, and is placed in a
次いで、図5に示すように下型6上に上型7をセットし、ノズル5を介して空気を圧入しながら加熱し、熱硬化性樹脂を硬化させて成形体を得る。この加熱温度は熱硬化性樹脂が十分に硬化する温度であり、一般に130〜180℃である。最後に、可撓性中空芯材1もしくは中空チューブ3を除去することにより、中空成形体が得られる。
Next, as shown in FIG. 5, the
カーボン/エポキシプリプレグ(東邦テナックス社製、W3101/Q-112J)を原反のまま、一部に誘電特性センサー(NETZSCH-Geratebau社製、IDEX-Midcon)を貼り付け、80℃の加熱炉に入れ、予備加熱を行った。この予備加熱時に、プリプレグの誘電特性をMicrodielectrometer(N ETZSCH-Geratebau社製、Eumetric system III)を用いて測定し、樹脂粘度、硬化深度(Cure Index)を測定した。硬化深度測定に際しては、あらかじめ同じ測定システム、同じ材料を用いた急加温徐冷による100%硬化実験で得られたデータから測定パラメータを抽出し、同装置上で補正してある。 A carbon / epoxy prepreg (Toho Tenax Co., Ltd., W3101 / Q-112J) is used as a raw material, and a dielectric property sensor (NETZSCH-Geratebau Co., Ltd., IDEX-Midcon) is affixed to a part and placed in a heating furnace at 80 ° C. Preheating was performed. During this preheating, the dielectric properties of the prepreg were measured using a Microdielectrometer (manufactured by NETZSCH-Geratebau, Eumetric system III), and the resin viscosity and the cure depth (Cure Index) were measured. In measuring the curing depth, measurement parameters are extracted from data obtained in a 100% curing experiment by rapid heating and slow cooling using the same measurement system and the same material in advance and corrected on the same apparatus.
上記処理において、硬化深度が10%になった時点で加温を停止し、急冷し、硬化反応を止めた。熱処理開始から80分、樹脂到達温度は84℃であった。 In the above treatment, when the curing depth reached 10%, the heating was stopped and rapidly cooled to stop the curing reaction. 80 minutes after the start of the heat treatment, the resin arrival temperature was 84 ° C.
こうして予備硬化させたプリプレグを適宜裁断し、8層重ね合わせた後、片面上に厚さ152μmのPTFEフィルム(AIRTEC社製、TOOLTEC CS5)を貼り付けた。このプリプレグを、所定の断面形状の芯材の周囲にPTFEフィルムがこの芯材と接するように、約60℃に加温して巻きつけ、室温まで冷却し、24時間放置し、芯材を取り除き、PTFEフィルムの両端を絞り、かつ径10mmのアルミパイプを挿入し目止めを行って、プリフォームを得た。 The prepreg thus precured was appropriately cut, and after eight layers were laminated, a PTFE film (TOOLTEC CS5, manufactured by AIRTEC) having a thickness of 152 μm was stuck on one side. Wrap the prepreg around the core material with a predetermined cross-sectional shape so that the PTFE film is in contact with the core material, heat it to about 60 ° C, cool it to room temperature, leave it for 24 hours, and remove the core material. Then, both ends of the PTFE film were squeezed and an aluminum pipe having a diameter of 10 mm was inserted and sealed to obtain a preform.
このプリフォームを、所定の形状をなす下型に、約60℃に加温しながらキャビティに沿うように変形させながら投入した。次いで上型をセットし、アルミパイプを介してまず25日間室温で放置し、再度130℃に加熱すると、樹脂粘度が高くなり、流動性が低下した。この傾向は硬化深度が高いほど顕著であった。その結果、下型へのセットが困難であった。 The preform was put into a lower mold having a predetermined shape while being deformed along the cavity while being heated to about 60 ° C. Next, when the upper mold was set and left at room temperature for 25 days through an aluminum pipe and heated again to 130 ° C., the resin viscosity increased and the fluidity decreased. This tendency was more remarkable as the curing depth was higher. As a result, it was difficult to set the lower mold.
