Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a carbon fiber reinforced composite material with excellent mechanical strength by integrating in laminating relation a semi-cured composite material layer that contains carbon fibers therein and a synthetic resin film having thermal adhesion, onto the epoxy resin. CONSTITUTION:A prepreg sheet of a fiber reinforced composite material is made such that polyolefin film 3 is laminated on a composite material layer 2 wherein one-sided parallel high strength carbon fibers are filled in semi-cured epoxy resin. The polyolefin film 3 used herein is of the three layered structure wherein the outer layer comprises adhesive polypropylene modified by unsaturated carboxylic acid and the inner layer comprises a copolymer consisting mainly of polypropylene and butene and not showing the melting point at Tg 60 deg.C. The adhesive layer of the outer layer is adjusted to be melted at the temperature around 135 deg.C that is the curing temperature of the epoxy resin of the composite material layer 2. When the prepreg sheet is employed, a carbon fiber reinforced composite material with excellent mechanical strength can be realized by a conventional forming method.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] As the performance of carbon fiber itself increases, the brittle characteristics of epoxy resins have become a problem. When a load such as tension, repetition, impact, etc. is applied to a CFRP having an epoxy resin as a matrix, the resin first breaks down, and the breakage causes the entire CFRP to break. For this reason, even if the strength of the carbon fiber itself is increased, the strength of CFRP will not increase that much. For example, in a CFRP with a quasi-isotropic structure based on the high-strength fiber trading card T800 (manufactured by Toshi Co., Ltd.),
Tensile elongation at break: 1.5% and elongation at break of the fiber itself: 1.5%
.. This value is smaller than 9%. Furthermore, in the composite material, significant peeling occurred between the layers at 90° and 45° at an elongation of 1%, indicating that it is difficult to use it as a structural material at this stage.

In order to solve these problems, attempts are being made to improve the strength characteristics of CFRP by using a thermoplastic resin with high toughness as the matrix resin. This is a thermoplastic resin with excellent heat resistance such as polyether ether ketone resin (PEEK) and polyether sulfone resin (PES).
) is used as the matrix resin. However, although the application of such thermoplastic resins can improve the strength properties of CFRP, the molding temperature is extremely high, making it impossible to mold with existing equipment, and the flexibility of the prepreg sheet is not limited to that of epoxy resin-based ones. Comparatively speaking, it is difficult to fabricate structures with complex shapes, so it is not effective.

[Effect 1] The composite material obtained by laminating the carbon fiber reinforced composite prepreg sheet of the present invention in any configuration, or by laminating the prepreg sheet of the present invention in combination with a conventional prepreg sheet and then curing it, is as follows: It has a synthetic resin film between the layers. Synthetic resin films generally have a greater elongation at break than epoxy resins used as matrix resins, so they can increase the initial onset of interlayer fracture in composite material layers, suppressing the progression of damage such as delamination, and Mechanical strength such as tensile strength and fatigue strength can be improved.
