摘要:
There is disclosed a prepreg including noncircular cross-section carbon fibers and a matrix resin having a flexural elastic modulus of 2.7 GPa or more and a water absorption of 3.4% or less under hot-wet conditions after curing; and another prepreg including carbon fibers and a matrix resin having an open-hole compression strength under hot-wet conditions and a compression strength after impact under room-temperature conditions of a quasi-isotropic material after curing of each 275 MPa or more. Carbon fiber-reinforced composite materials produced by curing these prepregs are excellent in open-hole compression strength under hot-wet conditions and in compression strength after impact, and can be suitably used especially as an aircraft primary structure material.

摘要:
The object of the present invention is to provide carbon fibers with high tensile strength as a resin impregnated strand even if the single filaments constituting the carbon fibers are thick. The carbon fibers of the present invention consisting of a plurality of single filaments are characterized by satisfying the following relation:.sigma..gtoreq.11.1-0.75dwhere .sigma. is the tensile strength of the carbon fibers as a resin impregnated strand (in GPa) and d is the average diameter of the single filaments (in .mu.m). The carbon fibers can be preferably used as a material for forming energy-related apparatuses such as CNG tanks, fly wheels, wind mills and turbine blades, a material for reinforcing structural members of roads, bridge piers, etc., and also a material for forming or reinforcing architectural members such as timber and curtain walls.

摘要:
Disclosed is a carbon fiber made from an acrylic fiber, the carbon crystal of which has a crystal size Lc of 15 to 65 .ANG. as determined by the wide angle X-ray diffractometry. This carbon fiber has regions with a lower crystallinity in the surface layer portion thereof than that of the central portion thereof, and the compressive strength .sigma..sub.cf (GPa) of the single filament thereof determined by the loop method satisfies formula (I):.sigma..sub.cf .gtoreq.10.78-0.1176.times. Lc (I).The carbon fiber is produced by ionizing in vacuo an atom or molecule which is solid or gaseous at normal temperature, accelerating the ionized atom or molecule by an electric field, and implanting the accelerated ionized atom or molecule in a bundle of carbon fibers.
