- the molded article which was molded without deformation or wrinkle were judged as “good”, and the molded article which has deformation or wrinkle were judged as “poor”.
- Example 3 Example 1 Example 2 kind of polyamide resin fiber Pa fiber 1 Pa fiber 2 Pa fiber 3 N6 Pa fiber 1 kind of continuous carbon fiber C fiber 1 C fiber 1 C fiber 1 C fiber 1 C fiber 1 Average fiber length of polyamide 11 11 12 11 12 resin fiber in square (X) (mm) Average fiber length of polyamide 1.1 1.1 1.2 1.1 1.2 resin fiber/length of side of square Average fiber length of continuous 15 14 12 14 17 carbon fiber in square (X) (mm) Average fiber length of continuous 1.5 1.4 1.2 1.4 1.7 carbon fiber/length of side of square Mass per unit area (g/m 2 ) 370 350 400 350 400 Bending strength (MPa) 800 900 1000 600 600 Shapability of fiber fabric good good good good good Appearance of molded article good good good poor poor
- the fiber fabrics of this invention were found to have high mechanical strength, and good shapability.
- the fiber fabric (Comparative Example 1) using a polyamide resin other than that specified by this invention was found to show poor mechanical strength. Even if the polyamide resin fallen in the range specified by the invention were used, the obtained molded article was found to show degraded appearance, when the average length of the continuous carbon fiber fell outside the range of 1.1 to 1.6 times longer than the length of a side of the square (X) (Comparative Example 2).
