The amount of the mixture of the carbodiimide reagent and the thermoplastic resin for surface treatment adhered to the carbon fiber after drying is:
It is preferable to appropriately change the mixture ratio of the carbodiimide reagent and the thermoplastic resin for surface treatment, so that the amount of the carbodiimide reagent alone attached is 0.001 to 8% by weight, preferably 0.1 to 7%, Moreover, the amount of the adhered amount of the thermoplastic resin for surface treatment is set to be 0.1 to 10% by weight. If the amount of the carbodiimide reagent deposited is less than 0.001%, the effect of improving the adhesiveness cannot be obtained, and
On the other hand, if it exceeds%, the effect of improving the adhesiveness decreases. In addition, the adhesion amount of the thermoplastic resin for surface treatment to the carbon fiber is
If it is less than 0.1%, the amount of carbodiimide is insufficient to obtain the effect of improving the adhesiveness, and if it exceeds 10%, the amount of resin adhered to the carbon fiber is too large and the flexibility of the fiber is lost. It becomes a prepreg itself. Also,
General carbon fiber rovings and strands are surface-treated with a sizing agent (sizing agent) and are commercially available.
When such a carbon fiber is used, it is preferable that the sizing agent is burned and removed by heating at a high temperature in air in advance and then treated with a mixture of a carbodiimide reagent and a thermoplastic resin for surface treatment. .. Further, the carbon fiber may be subjected to a surface activation treatment prior to the surface treatment with the mixture of the carbodiimide reagent and the surface treatment thermoplastic resin. As the surface activation treatment, various treatment methods such as treatment with potassium permanganate, nitric acid, and electrolysis treatment in an electrolyte solution are used.
