Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain carbon fiber capable of significantly improving the characteristics of the composite materials by reinforcing them therewith through suppressing breakage or fluffing during the filament winding molding process using the carbon fiber. CONSTITUTION:Acrylic precursor filament yarns <=50 in the lightness difference DELTAL determined by iodine adsorption method are subjected to flameproofing treatment in the air at 230-280 deg.C and at a draw ratio of 0.80-1.00 followed by carbonizing treatment in an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen gas at 1100-2000 deg.C and at a draw ratio of <=0.98 at 1000-1100 deg.C, and then, subjected to electrolytic surface treatment and sizing treatment, thus obtaining the objective carbon fiber filament yarns 400kgf/mm<2> in strand tensile strength, >=0.2g/de in yarn breakage limiting tension and >=100kgf/mm2 in loop strength. When such carbon fiber is impregnated with an epoxy resin and wound up on a metallic mandrel breakage or fluffing can be suppressed significantly and line speed up is enabled.

Generally, the characteristics of the reinforcing fiber required for the FW molding method are high handling performance typified by fluff resistance and the like, high process passing performance typified by scratch resistance and yarn breakage resistance, or Examples include high-speed resin impregnation performance. As a method for improving the handling performance, a sizing agent is added to the carbon fiber (for example, JP-A-62-62
-299580, Japanese Examined Patent Publication No. 1-46636,
Japanese Patent Publication No. 57-49675) has been proposed so far. However, when it is used for FW molding, it is required to maintain high process passing performance even under severe conditions such as rubbing between carbon fiber and a fixed guide or roller before and after resin impregnation. On the other hand, it was impossible to improve only by focusing the carbon fibers with the sizing agent. On the other hand, until now, it has not been sufficiently studied to make the carbon fiber itself a property suitable for the FW molding method. Therefore, in the conventional carbon fiber, fluffing, yarn breakage, etc. often occur in the molding process in the FW molding method, and further, the characteristics of the carbon fiber are
There is a problem that the properties of the obtained composite material are not sufficiently reflected.
