2. Description of the Related Art Generally, glass cloth is woven using glass fibers having a starch-based sizing agent. In the case of a glass cloth using a starch-based sizing agent, it is necessary to remove oil by heating in order to improve the affinity with epoxy resins and polyester resins. However, this heat deoiling has a drawback that the performance of glass fiber is deteriorated.

On the other hand, a method of deoiling by washing with water instead of deoiling by heating has been developed. This uses a water-soluble epoxy resin as a sizing agent, and can be easily deoiled by washing with water. However, this water-soluble epoxy resin sizing agent has a drawback that it easily migrates. The migration is a phenomenon in which the sizing agent is concentrated on the surface layer of glass fiber (hereinafter referred to as a cake) which is glued and wound around a tube or the like due to evaporated water.

In the case of a primary sizing agent which is prone to migration, the sizing agent adhesion rate on the surface layer is 10 times or more as compared with the central portion. When a cloth woven using migrated glass fibers is used as FRP (fiber reinforced plastic), it causes impregnation failure and the like, and the characteristics of FRP deteriorate.

The present invention is intended to solve the above-mentioned problems by adjusting the pH of the primary size and changing the water solubility of the water-soluble epoxy resin. That is, the present invention is a primary sizing agent characterized by containing at least a water-soluble epoxy resin and having a pH of 5.5-7.5, containing at least a water-soluble epoxy resin and having a pH of 5.5-. At 7.5, the glass fiber is characterized in that the water-soluble epoxy resin is associated with a primary sizing agent forming particles having a diameter of 0.5 to 50 μm. The pH of the primary size should be 5.5-7.5. If the pH is less than 5.5, the water-soluble epoxy resin will dissolve to the molecular level and migration will increase, and if it is greater than 7.5, the solubility will decrease and during size preparation,
Water-soluble epoxy resin precipitates.

The amount of the water-soluble epoxy resin added is preferably 1-2% by weight based on the primary sizing agent. If the added amount is more than 2%, the water-soluble epoxy resin may precipitate when left standing after the primary sizing agent is prepared. On the other hand, if it is less than 1%, the bundling force is not sufficient and fluff tends to occur when glued to the glass fiber.

The glass fiber of the present invention is extremely excellent in weavability,
The primary sizing agent attached to the glass fiber by the washing treatment is
It has an excellent cleaning property that can be removed extremely easily, and has the feature that migration can be suppressed to a low level. It is estimated that this excellent performance is due to the following reasons. When the pH of the primary sizing agent is lower than 5.5, the water-soluble epoxy resin dissolves to the molecular level, but when the pH is 5.5 or more, the water-soluble epoxy resin cannot dissolve to the molecular level and the primary sizing agent is associated. , Becomes cloudy. At this time, the water-soluble epoxy resin is preferably particles having a diameter of about 0.5 to 50 μm, and particularly preferably a colloid of particles having a diameter of 1 to 5 μm. If it is 0.5 μm or less, migration is large, and if it is 50 μm or more, size stability is reduced.

The primary sizing agent of the present invention containing a water-soluble epoxy resin which is associated with and has a larger particle size than the conventional product has a water content on the surface layer of the cake in a drying step after being attached to glass fiber and wound as a cake. It is difficult to move with the evaporating flow. Therefore, it is considered that migration can be suppressed low.

As described above, by adjusting the pH of the primary sizing agent containing the water-soluble epoxy resin to 5.5 to 7.5, the weaving property and the removability of the primary sizing agent adhering to the woven fabric with water can be improved. The glass fiber cake to which the primary sizing agent of the present invention is adhered can be suppressed to have low migration at the time of drying because the colloidal particle size is adjusted so that the water-soluble epoxy resin does not precipitate. Therefore, since the primary sizing agent is uniformly attached from the center of the cake to the surface layer, the mechanical properties of the composite material using the glass fiber cake to which the primary sizing agent of the present invention is attached are excellent.
