(3) Production of Glass Fiber Reinforced Thermoplastic Resin Sheet An example of the production of the glass fiber reinforced polypropylene resin sheet by the wet papermaking method will be specifically described below. Glass fiber reinforced polypropylene resin sheet produced by wet papermaking
In a dispersion tank, a chopped strand of glass fiber having a length of 3 to 50 mm and a polypropylene resin powder having an average particle diameter of 0.1 to 1 mm were added in advance with a surfactant and agitated to sufficiently foam. Pour into liquid. In the dispersion tank, stirring for uniformly dispersing the reinforcing glass fiber and the polypropylene resin powder particles is performed. By this stirring, the chopped strands are opened and both are dispersed. Next, the sufficiently stirred dispersion liquid is supplied by a pump into the head box installed above the mesh conveyor belt. A wet box is installed below the mesh conveyor belt on the lower side of the head box, and the pressure in the wet box is maintained at a negative pressure, so that the dispersion liquid in the head box is transferred to the mesh conveyor belt. By suction-dewatering through the mixture, a mixed paper (web) in which glass fibers and polypropylene resin powder are uniformly dispersed is obtained on a mesh-shaped conveyor belt. This mixed paper (web) is dried in a hot-air drying oven, and the dried mixed paper (web) is heated and melted at a temperature not lower than the melting point of the polypropylene resin as a matrix by using a double belt press, and then pressurized and cooled. Thus, a glass fiber reinforced polypropylene resin sheet having glass fibers fixed by a polypropylene resin is obtained. At this time, by controlling the applied pressure, a non-porous sheet or a porous breathable sheet containing almost no voids is obtained. These glass fiber reinforced polypropylene resin sheets are wound up on a reel or the like, or cut into a predetermined width and length by a cutter for practical use.
