It is generally known that the generation of pinholes on the surface of a molded product and the generation of voids inside the molded product largely depend on the molding method and molding conditions. Conventionally, the molding method and molding conditions have been optimized. Pinholes,
Efforts have been made to reduce voids. However, even if a good molded product can be obtained by optimizing the molding conditions, the range of the optimum conditions is very narrow, so that it often depends on the skill of skilled workers, and it is difficult to produce stably.

The present invention will be described in more detail below. The cause of the voids inside the molded product and the pinholes on the surface of the molded product is considered to be caused by the accumulation of air bubbles generated from the inside of the prepreg between the layers and the surface. UD
This is why voids and pinholes on the surface of the molded product are more likely to occur in the molded product of the cross prepreg having a texture in which air bubbles tend to accumulate, as compared with the prepreg. Bubbles generated from the inside of the prepreg that causes voids inside this molded product and pinholes on the surface of the molded product are fine bubbles mainly contained in the matrix resin, and the gas in which the matrix in the reinforcing fiber exists in the unimpregnated part, It is considered that the bubbles were bitten between the layers during stacking.

Components (A), (B), (C) and (D) were placed in a separable flask fixed in an oil bath at 0 ° C in the respective quantitative ratios shown in Table 1 and mixed with a stirring blade to dissolve the components. After checking, it cooled. After cooling to 80 ° C., (E) and 3,4-dichlorophenyl-N, N-dimethylurea were further added and thoroughly mixed with a stirring blade. Cool the resin to room temperature and put the resin on the release paper using a doctor knife.
The resin film was 2 g / m 2 . Next, on this resin film, CF cloth (product number: TR3110, unit weight: 200 g / m 2 ) manufactured by Mitsubishi Rayon Co., Ltd., which was plain-woven with carbon fiber having an elastic modulus of 24 tons / mm 2 at 12.5 fibers / inch, and a polypropylene film were covered. After that, a cross prepreg was produced by passing between the roll pair having a surface temperature of 90 ° C. The resin content was about 45 wt%.
