材として、成形材料に広く利用されている。Prepreg, which is made by impregnating reinforcing fiber bundle sheets such as carbon fibers, glass fibers, and fully aromatic polyamide fibers with thermosetting resins such as epoxy resins, non-reactive polyester resins, and polyimide resins, can be used for leaf springs, honeycomb structural materials, etc. It is widely used as a molding material, as an industrial material for fishing rods, sports and leisure applications such as golf and badminton shafts, and as a material for aircraft, automobiles, and medical applications.
このようなプリプレグは、その使用々途の多様化に伴い
種々の成形厚みをもったものが開発され、0.05〜0
.5mの厚みのものが一般に使用されておシ、成形物の
厚み、形、加工精度、機械的特性に対応してそれぞれの
厚みのものを選択し組合せて使用している。With the diversification of its uses, prepregs with various molding thicknesses have been developed, ranging from 0.05 to 0.
.. Thicknesses of 5 m are generally used, and those of different thicknesses are selected and used in combination depending on the thickness, shape, processing accuracy, and mechanical properties of the molded product.
例えば、一方向に繊維が配列している比較的厚い成形物
を得る場合には、成形厚みの厚く仕上るプリプレグを選
択して積層労力の減少を計り又薄肉で異方性に繊維が配
列したものを得る場合は、成形厚みの非常に薄いプリプ
レグを組合せて積層を行うなどである。For example, if you want to obtain a relatively thick molded product with fibers arranged in one direction, you can reduce the lamination labor by selecting a prepreg that can be finished with a thicker molding thickness, or choose a thin prepreg with fibers arranged anisotropically. In order to obtain this, for example, prepregs with a very thin molding thickness are combined and laminated.
これら種々の厚みをもつプリプレグは、従来繊維目付を
増減することによって製造されており、具体的には繊維
束のフィラメント本数や単位長重量を変えたり、繊維束
の数を変えてプリプレグの厚みを制御している。These prepregs with various thicknesses have conventionally been manufactured by increasing or decreasing the fiber basis weight. Specifically, the thickness of the prepreg can be adjusted by changing the number of filaments or unit length weight of the fiber bundle, or by changing the number of fiber bundles. It's in control.

維束を押し拡げて厚みが0.05節以下のプリプレグを
つくっている。In general, fiber bundles with a small number of filaments are expensive and expensive, and the unit length and weight of 1000 or 2000 filaments is o.
Thin prepregs made from fiber bundles smaller than 1 sr/m result in extremely expensive prepregs, which have the drawback of being limited in usage and lacking in versatility. Therefore, as a countermeasure, a fiber bundle with a large number of filaments is expanded to make a prepreg, and generally a fiber bundle with a number of filaments of 3000 and a unit length and weight of 0.2 y/m is made. It is pressed and expanded to create prepreg with a thickness of 0.05 knots or less.
しかしながら、このような方法でつくられた005w以
下の厚みをもつプリプレグは、目開きが多く、結果的に
均一な成形品が得られないという大きな欠点を有してい
る。However, a prepreg having a thickness of 005w or less produced by such a method has a major drawback in that it has many openings, and as a result, a uniform molded product cannot be obtained.
〔発明の目的〕
本発明者らは上記したような欠点がなく、目開きが殆ん

を加えた結果、次のようにすればよいことを見出した。[Object of the Invention] The present inventors have developed an ultra-thin prepreg fiber bundle with almost no openings, which does not have the above-mentioned drawbacks, at a low cost, that is, with a unit length weight of less than 0.15 f/m. As a result of various studies on how to produce ultra-thin prepreg without using , it was discovered that the following method can be used.
本発明の要旨とするところは、平均直径が6μ以下の極
細単繊維からなる繊維束を複数本引揃えた繊維束シート

製造することにある。The gist of the present invention is to manufacture a unidirectionally aligned fiber-reinforced prepreg by impregnating a fiber bundle sheet, which is a plurality of aligned fiber bundles made of ultrafine single fibers with an average diameter of 6μ or less, with a resin. .

うな方法によって製造されたものが使用される。More specifically, the weight per unit length of the fiber bundle is 0.2±0.05 f, which is composed of ultra-fine single fibers with an average diameter of 6p or less.
/ m, it is possible to obtain an ultra-thin, high-performance prepreg that could not be obtained with conventional fiber bundles of 3000 filaments. By adopting the method of the present invention, it is less than 0.05 m, and even 0.03 m.
It becomes possible to easily manufacture prepregs with a diameter of m or less. The ultrafine fibers to be used can be wholly aromatic polyamide, glass fibers, silicon carbide fibers, etc., but it is particularly preferable to use carbon fibers.
34 and Japanese Patent Publication No. 57-42728 are used.

本発明で使用する極細の繊維から構成される繊維束即ち

は、従来の太い繊維径の繊維から構成されたものに比べ

ことは、本発明者らが初めて見出したものであシ、数値
的に参考例に示されている。The fiber bundle used in the present invention is composed of ultra-fine fibers, that is, the fiber bundle has a large number of filaments even though the unit weight is the same, compared to the conventional fiber bundle composed of thick fiber diameter fibers. Fiberability and spreadability are significantly improved. This was discovered for the first time by the present inventors, and is numerically shown in the reference example.
何故このような効果が得られるのかは明確ではないが、
単繊維の径が小さい程、繊維同志の接触面積が小さくな
ることによシ繊維束内の隣接する単繊維間の摩擦力が低
下し、繊維束を押し拡げる作用を受けた時に滑り易くな
り、容易に開繊するのではないかと推論される。Although it is not clear why this effect is obtained,
The smaller the diameter of the single fibers, the smaller the contact area between the fibers, which reduces the frictional force between adjacent single fibers within the fiber bundle, making it easier for the fibers to slip when subjected to the action of pushing the fiber bundle apart. It is inferred that the fibers open easily.
