Description

The present invention relates to a carbon fiber reinforced composite material comprising a composite material in which a carbon fiber base material is impregnated with a vinyl chloride resin composition, and a vinyl chloride resin composition covering at least part of the surface of the composite material. .

Carbon fiber reinforced composite materials (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as CFRP) composed of carbon fiber and matrix resin have high specific strength and specific modulus, excellent mechanical properties, and highly functional properties such as weather resistance and chemical resistance. have Therefore, CFRP is attracting attention in aircraft structural members, windmill blades, automobile outer panels, and general industrial applications, and its demand is increasing year by year.

As matrix resins, thermosetting resins typified by epoxy resins, which have low viscosity when impregnated with carbon fibers and have excellent adhesion to carbon fibers, have been conventionally known. In recent years, thermoplastic resins such as polyolefins and polyamide-based polymer alloys have been developed as matrix resins due to the demand for improved impact resistance, high productivity, and interest in recycling.

In order to take advantage of the excellent properties of carbon fibers, such as weight reduction and mechanical strength, it is important that the carbon fibers are uniformly dispersed in the matrix resin, and it is necessary that the resin viscosity during impregnation is low. . However, in general, thermoplastic resins tend to undergo thermal decomposition under high-temperature conditions, and many of them have high viscosity even in a molten state, which tends to cause problems such as insufficient resin impregnation.

On the other hand, in order to take advantage of the excellent mechanical properties of carbon fibers, it is also important that the interfacial adhesion between the carbon fibers and the matrix resin is excellent. For example, propylene-based resins have poor interfacial adhesion to carbon fibers, and it is difficult to obtain expected mechanical properties simply by melt-kneading propylene-based resins and carbon fibers. As a method to solve this problem, a modified propylene resin was developed in which maleic anhydride or the like was grafted onto a propylene resin, and by adding this, the interfacial adhesion between the propylene resin and the carbon fiber was improved. is planned.

By solving the above problems in terms of materials and processes, CFRP with a matrix resin such as polyolefin or polyamide-based polymer alloy has been put into practical use. In some cases, poor performance was a problem.

Vinyl chloride resin, which is a general-purpose thermoplastic resin, is excellent in flame retardancy, durability, oil resistance, and chemical resistance. Compared to ethylene-based resins and propylene-based resins, it has extremely low creep deformation and excellent mechanical strength. is known to be

However, vinyl chloride resin has a high melt viscosity among thermoplastic resins, and the molding processing temperature, that is, regarding the production of CFRP, the processing temperature when impregnating carbon fiber with vinyl chloride resin is the thermal decomposition temperature of vinyl chloride resin. is close to , impregnation into carbon fiber is presumed to be difficult, and there are no examples of its practical application. In fact, in Patent Literature 1, the amount of vinyl chloride resin is limited to that contained as an auxiliary component, and is only handled as a mixture with a thermosetting resin that dissolves vinyl chloride resin.

Since vinyl chloride resin is a polar polymer having chlorine groups, it is presumed to have better interfacial adhesiveness with carbon fibers than propylene resin, which is a non-polar polymer. However, vinyl chloride resin is prone to thermal decomposition and adhesion to molds during molding. In order to prevent adhesion to the metal surface, it is essential to add a lubricant or the like. Therefore, vinyl chloride resin generally has a higher additive content than other thermoplastic resins. As a result, the current situation is that it is not known how a high content of additives affects the interfacial adhesion between a vinyl chloride resin composition containing a large amount of additives and carbon fibers.

JP 2017-95537 A

As described above, the vinyl chloride resin composition has a high melt viscosity, a low thermal stability, and a high additive content. Therefore, it is presumed that the vinyl chloride-based resin composition is difficult to impregnate into the carbon fiber base material, making it difficult to form a composite. At present, there has not been sufficient investigation and clarification of what kind of vinyl chloride resin composition is suitable for producing CFRP. Therefore, there is still a demand for a vinyl chloride-based resin composition having good impregnating properties into carbon fiber substrates. Further, there is a demand for CFRP in which a carbon fiber base material is impregnated with such a vinyl chloride resin composition.

Furthermore, when a vinyl chloride resin composition is used for all of the matrix resin, in order to give priority to improving resin impregnation, vinyl chloride resin with a low degree of polymerization is used, or a large amount of additives with a low molecular structure is included. It was also feared that the mechanical properties of the original vinyl chloride resin composition could be sacrificed by doing so.

In order to solve the above problems, the inventors of the present invention, as a result of extensive studies, used a vinyl chloride resin composition (A) that satisfies specific conditions, and made at least a part of the surface of the composite material a vinyl chloride resin. The inventors have found that the above problems can be solved by coating with the composition, and have completed the present invention. That is, the gist of the present invention is as follows.

The vinyl chloride resin composition (A) should be excellent in interfacial adhesion to the surface of the carbon fiber substrate (B), that is, should have high compatibility.

The following embodiments are examples for explaining the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments. In the present invention, the Hansen solubility parameters (hereinafter sometimes abbreviated as HSP), which are generally adopted as a solvent-solute compatibility index, were used as a substitute index for compatibility.

(Definition of HSP)
The Hansen solubility parameter is commonly known as the SP value (δ), whereas the Hildebrand solubility parameter is assumed that the only forces acting between solvent-solute are intermolecular forces. , HSP represents the solubility in a three-dimensional space of the dispersion term δD, the polarity term δP, and the hydrogen bond term δH. The dispersion term δD indicates the effect of the dispersion force, the polar term δP indicates the effect of the dipole force, and the hydrogen bond term δH indicates the effect of the hydrogen bond force.

The Hildebrand SP value (δ) and the Hansen solubility parameter (HSP) have the relationship of the following formula (IV), and the SP value is the length of the vector of HSP, δD, δP, and δH as three components (totHSP) corresponds to

Therefore, it can be said that HSP is a superior method in that it completely includes the information of the Hildebrand SP value and can evaluate the solubility including the direction of the vector.

The definition and calculation of the Hansen Solubility Parameter can be found in Charles M. et al. Hansen, Hansen Solubility Parameters: A Users Handbook (CRC Press, 2007).

Further, by using computer software Hansen Solubility Parameters in Practice (HSPiP), HSP can be easily estimated.

(HSP determination method and concept)
In general, the HSP of a particular substance (solute) can be determined by dissolving a sample of the substance in a number of different solvents for which the Hansen Solubility Parameters have been established and conducting solubility tests. Specifically, among the solvents used in the solubility test, a sphere ( The solubility sphere) is found, and the center coordinates of the sphere are taken as the HSP of the substance.

Here, for example, if the HSPs of another solvent that was not used to measure the HSP of the substance are δD, δP, δH, the point indicated by the coordinates is included inside the solubility sphere of the substance. If so, the solvent will dissolve the substance. On the other hand, if the coordinate point is outside the solubility sphere of the substance, the solvent is considered incapable of dissolving the substance.

In the present invention, carbon materials that are insoluble in general solvents are also targeted. is calculated. For example, the following technical papers are referenced. C. M. Hansen, A.; L. Smith, Using Hansen solubility parameters to correlate solubility of C60 fullerene in organic solvents and in polymers, Carbon, 42, pp 1591-1597, (2004).

When focusing on two specific molecules (solvent and solute), the distance (Ra) between HSPs in the HSP space is defined by the following formula (V) and serves as a solubility index indicating whether the two molecules are compatible.

（数式（Ｖ）中、δＤ１およびδＤ２は、ハンセン溶解度パラメータにおける、特定の２分子の分散項を表す。同様に、δＰ、δＨは、各々極性項および水素結合項をそれぞれ示す。単位はいずれも（ＭＰａ）^１／２である。）

(In the formula (V), δD1 and δD2 represent the dispersion terms of two specific molecules in the Hansen solubility parameter. Similarly, δP and δH represent the polar term and the hydrogen bond term, respectively. The unit is (MPa) is ^1/2 .)

When utilizing the above HSP in the present invention, the compatibility between the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) and the carbon fiber base material (B) is the target, but the present inventors Since the system resin composition (A) contains a large amount of various additives while having a vinyl chloride resin as a main component, the compatibility between each additive (i) used and the vinyl chloride resin (p) used, and the Considering that it is important to pay attention to compatibility between each additive (i) and the carbon fiber base material (B), the invention of the characteristic (2) was made.

That is, in the present invention, the characteristic (2): the Hansen solubility parameters (δDi, δPi, δHi) of each additive (i) contained in the vinyl chloride resin composition (A), and the vinyl chloride resin used (p ) and the Hansen solubility parameters (δDp, δPp, δHp), the solubility index (Ra (pi)) calculated from the above formula (I), the Hansen solubility parameters (δDi, δPi, δHi), carbon The solubility index (Ra (ci)) calculated from the above formula (II) using the Hansen solubility parameters (δDc, δPc, δHc) of the fiber base material (B),
and the weight fraction C(i) of each additive (i) contained in the vinyl chloride resin composition (A), the value S calculated by the above formula (III) is preferably 150 or less. , and more preferably 130 or less. If the maximum value of S is 150 or less, the compatibility between the additive (i) and the vinyl chloride resin (p) is high, it is easily incorporated into the vinyl chloride resin, and the base material (B ), resulting in sufficient interfacial adhesion between the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) and the carbon fiber substrate (B).

<Vinyl chloride resin compositions (A) and (C)>
In the present invention, the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) and the vinyl chloride resin composition (C) are compositions having different properties. For example, the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) has a complex viscosity η at 200° C. and a frequency of 10 Hz higher than that of the vinyl chloride resin composition (C) in order to facilitate the impregnation of the carbon fiber substrate (B). Low is preferred.

The vinyl chloride resin (p) used in the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) and the vinyl chloride resin composition (C) is not particularly limited, and in addition to homopolymers of vinyl chloride monomers, for example, ( 1) Copolymers of vinyl chloride monomers and polymerizable monomers other than vinyl chloride monomers, (2) Grafting vinyl chloride monomers or vinyl chloride resins onto polymers other than vinyl chloride resins and a graft copolymer obtained by Furthermore, chlorinated vinyl chloride resins obtained by chlorinating these vinyl chloride resins are also included. These vinyl chloride resins may be used alone, or two or more of them may be used in combination.

(1) Polymerizable monomers in copolymers of vinyl chloride monomers and polymerizable monomers other than vinyl chloride monomers are not particularly limited, but α-olefins having 2 to 16 carbon atoms ( ethylene, propylene, and butylene); vinyl esters of aliphatic carboxylic acids having 2 to 16 carbon atoms (e.g., vinyl acetate and vinyl propionate); alkyl vinyl ethers having 2 to 16 carbon atoms (e.g., butyl vinyl ether and cetyl vinyl ether); alkyl (meth)acrylates having 1 to 16 carbon atoms (e.g., methyl (meth)acrylate, ethyl (meth)acrylate and butyl acrylate); aryl (meth)acrylates (e.g., phenyl methacrylate); aromatic vinyl (e.g., styrene and α-substituted styrenes (e.g., α-methylstyrene)); vinyl halides (e.g., vinylidene chloride and vinylidene fluoride); and N-substituted maleimides (N-phenylmaleimide and N-cyclohexylmaleimide). mentioned.

(2) Polymers that give graft copolymers together with vinyl chloride monomers or vinyl chloride resins may be homopolymers or copolymers as long as they can be graft-polymerized with vinyl chloride monomers. things are also included. For example, copolymers of α-olefins and vinyl esters (e.g., ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers); copolymers of α-olefins, vinyl esters, and carbon monoxide (e.g., ethylene-vinyl acetate-monoxide copolymers of α-olefins and alkyl (meth)acrylates (e.g., ethylene-methyl methacrylate copolymers and ethylene-ethyl acrylate copolymers); α-olefins and alkyl (meth)acrylates Copolymers with carbon monoxide (eg, ethylene-butyl acrylate-carbon monoxide copolymers); copolymers of two or more different α-olefins (eg, ethylene-propylene copolymers); unsaturated nitriles and dienes (eg, acrylonitrile-butadiene copolymers); polyurethanes; and chlorinated polyolefins (eg, chlorinated polyethylene and chlorinated polypropylene).

Although the average degree of polymerization of the vinyl chloride resin (p) is not particularly limited, it is preferably 400 or more and 1500 or less, more preferably 600 or more and 1000 or less. When the average degree of polymerization is equal to or higher than the above lower limit, it is easy to obtain preferable mechanical properties (for example, toughness) due to the vinyl chloride resin. When the average degree of polymerization is equal to or less than the above upper limit, it is easy to make the melt viscosity appropriate when impregnating the carbon fiber base material.

The vinyl chloride resin used in the vinyl chloride resin composition (C) has an average higher than the vinyl chloride resin used in the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) in order to improve the mechanical properties of the carbon fiber reinforced composite material. The degree of polymerization can be increased. For example, the vinyl chloride resin used in the vinyl chloride resin composition (C) preferably has an average polymerization degree of 600 or more, more preferably 800 or more and 2000 or less.

When further improvement in heat resistance and flame retardancy is expected compared to ordinary vinyl chloride resin, the vinyl chloride resin used in the vinyl chloride resin composition (C) is mainly composed of chlorinated vinyl chloride resin. It is better to choose one that

In general, a chlorinated vinyl chloride resin composition has a higher melt viscosity than a vinyl chloride resin composition and is more likely to be thermally decomposed, making it difficult to impregnate carbon fibers. Therefore, when a chlorinated vinyl chloride resin composition is used as the vinyl chloride resin composition (A), it is necessary to use a chlorinated vinyl chloride resin with a low degree of polymerization or to increase the amount of additives added. , there is a risk of impairing the mechanical properties.

Therefore, at least part of the surface of the composite material comprising the carbon fiber material (B) impregnated with the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) is covered with a chlorinated vinyl chloride resin composition containing a chlorinated vinyl chloride resin ( By coating with C), CFRP that maintains the expected heat resistance, flame retardancy, and mechanical properties can be obtained.

The degree of chlorination of the vinyl chloride resin used in the vinyl chloride resin compositions (A) and (C) is, for example, 56% by mass to 72% by mass. Since the vinyl chloride resin composition has a degree of chlorination of about 56.8% by mass, it is possible to maintain a viscosity sufficient to impregnate the carbon fiber substrate (B). Further, since the degree of chlorination is about 60% by mass to 72% by mass, an improvement in heat resistance and flame retardancy is expected. For example, in order to improve the heat resistance and flame retardancy of the carbon fiber reinforced composite material, the degree of chlorination of the vinyl chloride resin used in the vinyl chloride resin composition (C) for coating is It is preferably higher than the degree of chlorination of the vinyl chloride resin used in (A). The chlorine content can be measured according to JIS K7229.

When further reduction in weight and improvement in soundproofing properties are expected, the vinyl chloride resin composition (C) preferably contains a vinyl chloride resin foam. In general, with vinyl chloride resin compositions, foams can be obtained by chemical foaming by blending a foaming agent or by physical foaming by injecting nitrogen. and may impair the mechanical properties of the obtained CFRP. Therefore, the carbon fiber material (B) is impregnated with a vinyl chloride resin composition (A) containing a vinyl chloride resin that is not a foam, and the outer layer is a vinyl chloride resin composition containing a vinyl chloride resin foam. By coating with the resin composition (C), it is possible to obtain CFRP that maintains the expected lightness, soundproofing properties, and mechanical properties.

The plasticizer may be added for the purpose of enhancing workability during molding. The plasticizer is not particularly limited, and conventionally known plasticizers can be used. For example, phthalate ester plasticizers and non-phthalate plasticizers can be used. Phthalate plasticizers include dioctyl phthalate (DOP) and the like. Non-phthalate plasticizers include trimellitic acid-based compounds, phosphoric acid-based compounds, adipic acid-based compounds, citric acid-based compounds, ether-based compounds, polyester-based compounds, soybean oil-based compounds, and cyclohexanedicarboxylate. and terephthalic acid-based compounds. Only one type of the plasticizer may be used, or two or more types may be used in combination.

The total content of the additive (i) contained in the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) is not particularly specified, but the weight fraction C(i) of each additive should be included as a constituent of the formula (III). , it is preferable that the amount is as small as possible as long as there is no problem in manufacturing. Specifically, the total content of the additive (i) is preferably 20 parts by mass or less, more preferably 15 parts by mass or less, and 10 parts by mass with respect to 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin. Part or less is more preferable. A smaller amount can reduce the influence of exudation near the interface of the carbon fiber substrate (B).

The content of the plasticizer contained in the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) is preferably as small as possible because a large amount of the plasticizer in the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) may impair the mechanical strength of CFRP. Specifically, the content of the plasticizer is preferably 80 parts by mass or less, more preferably 50 parts by mass or less, and still more preferably 10 parts by mass or less with respect to 100 parts by mass of the vinyl chloride resin. Yes, more preferably 1 part by mass or less, and most preferably the plasticizer is not included.

For example, when an improvement in heat resistance and flame retardancy is expected, it is preferable to select a vinyl chloride resin (p) containing a chlorinated vinyl chloride resin as a main component. In general, a chlorinated vinyl chloride resin composition has a higher melt viscosity than a vinyl chloride resin composition and is more likely to be thermally decomposed, making it difficult to impregnate carbon fibers. Therefore, in the case of using a chlorinated vinyl chloride resin for the vinyl chloride resin composition (A), by using a chlorinated vinyl chloride resin with a low degree of polymerization or by increasing the amount of additives added, the expected CFRP can be obtained that maintains heat resistance, flame retardancy, and mechanical properties.

<Carbon fiber base material (B)>
Definitions of carbon fibers and carbon fiber substrates in the present invention are shown below.
A carbon fiber is a fiber composed of a material containing carbon. It is a concept including the case of using together with other fibers and the case of using alone.
A carbon fiber base material is a carbon fiber fabric having carbon fiber bundles composed of a plurality of carbon fibers as a warp bundle and a weft bundle.
Carbon fiber is a concept including short carbon fiber, long carbon fiber, and continuous carbon fiber.
A short carbon fiber is a carbon fiber having a fiber length of 1 mm or less.
A long carbon fiber is a carbon fiber having a fiber length of 5 cm or less.
Continuous carbon fibers are carbon fibers other than short fibers and long fibers.

(Carbon fiber material)
The carbon fiber material is not particularly limited, and may be carbon fibers such as PAN (polyacrylonitrile)-based carbon fiber and pitch-based carbon fiber, and other fibers; metal fibers such as steel fibers; glass fibers, ceramic fibers, Inorganic fibers such as boron fibers; organic fibers such as aramid, polyester, polyethylene, nylon, vinylon, polyacetal, polyparaphenylene benzoxazole, and high-strength polypropylene; natural fibers such as kenaf and hemp, combined with multiple types may be From the viewpoint of the specific strength, it is preferable to consist only of carbon fibers.

Short carbon fibers, long carbon fibers, and continuous carbon fibers can be appropriately used as the carbon fibers used in the present invention, but continuous carbon fibers are preferable from the viewpoint of the mechanical properties of the obtained CFRP.

(Form and manufacturing method of carbon fiber base material (B))
The form of the fiber is not particularly limited as long as it is a continuous fiber, and for example, a form in which the tow is aligned in one direction and held by auxiliary weft yarns, a form in which the fiber is made into a woven fabric (cloth); A multi-axial warp knit in which a plurality of fiber sheets arranged in one direction are overlapped so that the directions of the fibers are different from each other and stitched with auxiliary yarns. A carbon fiber base material (B) can be obtained by producing carbon fibers by each production method based on the above-described configuration.

Each carbon fiber is generally a single fiber, and a plurality of carbon fibers are gathered to form a carbon fiber bundle. The number of carbon fibers constituting each carbon fiber bundle is preferably 1,000 to 50,000, more preferably 2,000 to 40,000, even more preferably 5,000 to 25,000.

The fiber diameter of the filaments is preferably 3 μm or more, and preferably 12 μm or less. If the fiber diameter is 3 μm or more, sufficient strength can be obtained, and for example, when the filament undergoes lateral movement on the surface of a roll or spool in various processing processes, it suppresses cutting and fuzz accumulation. can. The upper limit is usually about 12 μm for the reason that the carbon fiber can be easily produced.

Although the plurality of carbon fiber bundles is not particularly limited, it is preferable to form a sheet. The basis weight of the sheet-shaped carbon fiber bundle is, for example, preferably 100 g/m ² or more and 600 g/m ^{2 or} less, more preferably 150 g/m ² or more and 500 g/m ^{2 or} less. It is preferable that the basis weight is equal to or higher than the above lower limit in terms of efficiency when secondary processing is performed by laminating the obtained CFRP sheet, and if it is equal to or lower than the above upper limit, it is easy to obtain impregnation. is preferable.

As the carbon fiber base material (B), it is preferable to use a carbon fiber bundle that has undergone a fiber-opening treatment in advance (hereinafter sometimes referred to as a fiber-opened carbon fiber bundle) for the purpose of facilitating resin impregnation. The opening step is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include a method of including spacer particles, a method of squeezing the fibers with a round bar, a method of using an air current, and a method of vibrating the fibers with ultrasonic waves or the like. A preferred method is to include spacer particles. By increasing the inter-fiber distance in this way, even if high tension is applied to the carbon fibers in the manufacturing stage, the inter-fiber distance is widened in advance. , facilitates resin impregnation. Further, even if tension is applied to the fibers, the inter-fiber distance is less likely to narrow.

The spacer particles get between the carbon fibers in each fiber bundle, thereby opening the carbon fiber bundle. It is preferable that the spacer particles that have entered between the carbon fibers bridge the carbon fibers. Here, "crosslinked" means having a structure in which spacer particles interposed between carbon fibers are arranged so as to bridge at least two carbon fibers. Also, the spacer particles are preferably bonded to the carbon fibers via carbon allotropes present on the particle surfaces. The carbon fibers bridge between the carbon fibers, and the spacer particles adhere to the carbon fibers, thereby making it easier to more firmly maintain the open state of the fiber bundle.

The spacer particles are not particularly limited, but may contain, for example, a carbon allotrope. Examples of carbon allotropes in spacer particles include amorphous carbon, graphite, and diamond. Amorphous carbon includes amorphous carbon. Among these, amorphous carbon is preferred, and amorphous carbon is more preferred.

Here, the carbon allotrope is preferably derived from the carbon of the thermosetting resin, that is, the carbon allotrope is preferably obtained by carbonizing the thermosetting resin. Thermosetting resins include, for example, phenolic resins, epoxy resins, melamine resins, urea resins, unsaturated polyester resins, alkyd resins, polyurethanes, oxazine resins, and the like. Oxazine-based resins are preferable from the viewpoint of being able to form a film of. Examples of oxazine-based resins include benzoxazine resin and naphthoxazine resin. Among these resins, naphthoxazine resin is preferable because it is easily carbonized at a lower temperature, and is less likely to be excessively softened even under the conditions of temperature and pressure during CFRP production of the present invention. Therefore, the distance between the fibers is sufficiently secured, and the impregnating property of the resin is further enhanced.

Further, the spacer particles may be carbon allotrope particles composed of a carbon allotrope, or may be coated particles containing a core particle and a carbon allotrope coating the core particle. The spacer particles are preferably coated particles from the viewpoint of resin impregnation. The coated particles may be coated with the carbon allotrope over the entire surface, or may be partially coated with the carbon allotrope. The core particles can be used without any particular limitation as long as they are not deformed or destroyed by the pressure and temperature when the carbon fiber bundle is impregnated with the thermoplastic resin. For example, inorganic particles, organic particles, etc. can be used. can. As the core particles, inorganic particles or organic particles may be used alone, or both may be used in combination.

The average particle size of the spacer particles is preferably 1-20 μm. By using spacer particles having a size within this range, the spacer particles can be easily inserted between the carbon fibers, and the carbon fiber bundle can be spread more widely. The spacer particles preferably have an average particle size of 2 to 20 μm, particularly preferably 4 to 15 μm.

The total adhesion amount of spacer particles in the spread carbon fiber bundle is preferably 0.5 to 20% by mass, more preferably 1 to 10% by mass, based on the spread carbon fiber bundle. The carbon fiber bundle can be properly opened by setting the adhesion amount to be equal to or higher than the lower limit. Further, by setting the adhesion amount to the upper limit or less, it is possible to prevent the spread carbon fiber bundle from containing the spacer particles more than necessary and lowering the mechanical properties.

[Method for producing carbon fiber reinforced composite material]
The carbon fiber reinforced composite material according to the present invention can be produced, for example, by a method including (1) substrate preparation step and (2) resin impregnation step. Each step will be described in detail below.

(1) Substrate preparation step (1) Substrate preparation step is a step of preparing the carbon fiber substrate (B) described above. The carbon fiber substrate (B) is as described above, and for example, an appropriate carbon fiber material, form, and basis weight can be selected. Also, a woven fabric having a desired structure may be produced using commercially available carbon fiber bundles.

The step of preparing the carbon fiber substrate preferably includes a step of opening the carbon fiber bundle. The process of opening the carbon fiber bundle will be described below. Various methods are conceivable for opening the carbon fiber bundle, but as an example, the carbon fiber bundle may be provided with spacer particles arranged between the carbon fibers. By arranging the spacer particles between the carbon fibers, the carbon fiber bundles are opened, and the carbon fiber fabric can be sufficiently impregnated with the thermoplastic resin. In addition, when a treatment such as physical fiber opening is performed, the fiber bundle is horizontally opened, the pitch width of the fabric increases, and the design of the fiber-reinforced composite material may deteriorate. Since the carbon fiber fabric composed of carbon fiber bundles having spacer particles on the carbon fiber surface as described above is not physically opened, it is possible to suppress the deterioration of the design of the fiber reinforced composite material. and the carbon fiber bundles are sufficiently opened by the spacer particles, it is thought that the impregnability of the thermoplastic resin can be improved.

The spread carbon fiber bundle can be produced by contacting the carbon fiber bundle with the spread impregnation liquid and heating. After the carbon fiber bundle is spread, the carbon fiber fabric may be obtained using the spread carbon fiber bundle. Fiber is preferred.

As for the timing of contacting the carbon fiber bundle with the opening impregnation liquid, the carbon fiber bundle may be brought into contact with the opening impregnation liquid in advance before producing the carbon fiber fabric, or the carbon fiber bundle may be used as a warp bundle and a weft bundle. A carbon fiber fabric may be woven, and the resulting carbon fiber fabric may be brought into contact with an opening impregnation liquid to open a carbon fiber bundle.

The contact with the fiber-opening impregnation liquid may be performed by impregnating the carbon fiber bundle with the fiber-opening impregnation liquid. Specifically, the fiber-opening impregnation liquid may be sprayed or applied to the carbon fiber bundle, or the carbon fiber bundle may be immersed in the fiber-opening impregnation liquid. By bringing the carbon fiber bundle into contact with the fiber-opening impregnation liquid, the resin particles enter the gaps between the carbon fibers of the carbon fiber bundle, thereby opening the carbon fiber bundle.

The fiber-opening impregnation liquid used for fiber-opening the carbon fiber bundle contains a monomer capable of forming a thermosetting resin (hereinafter also simply referred to as "monomer"). A monomer becomes a thermosetting resin by reacting with it. As described above, the thermosetting resin is preferably an oxazine-based resin. When the thermosetting resin is an oxazine-based resin, the monomers are, for example, phenols, formaldehyde, and amines. The oxazine-based resin is preferably a naphthoxazine resin, as described above.

(2) Resin impregnation step (2) The resin impregnation step is a step of impregnating the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) into the carbon fiber substrate (B) prepared above. The carbon fiber reinforced composite material according to the present invention can be produced by impregnating the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) into the carbon fiber fabric composed of the above-described spread carbon fiber bundles.

For example, a film made of a vinyl chloride resin composition (A) is superimposed on a carbon fiber substrate (B) composed of an open carbon fiber bundle, and hot press molding is performed, or a The carbon fiber base material (B) can be impregnated with the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) by performing melt extrusion molding of the vinyl chloride resin composition (A). The carbon fiber reinforced composite material may be obtained by stacking a plurality of carbon fiber substrates (B) impregnated with the vinyl chloride resin composition (A), and at this time, the texture direction of each carbon fiber fabric is at a certain angle. By stacking the carbon fiber substrates (B) in a staggered manner, a carbon fiber reinforced composite material having even better mechanical strength can be obtained.

Extrusion molding or press molding can be used for hot pressing, and a carbon fiber reinforced composite material having a desired shape can be obtained by using a mold. The temperature at which the hot press molding is carried out can be carried out above the temperature at which the vinyl chloride resin composition (A) used softens or melts.
