Claims13
A reinforced prepreg which is used to be adhered onto a prepreg used for manufacturing a main body of a composite rim and be cured thereon to form a wear-resistant layer structure, the reinforced prepreg comprising:
- a fiber fabric made of liquid crystal polymer fibers;
- and
- a mixture mixed with the fiber fabric, the mixture comprising:
- a resin;
- and
- a plurality of needle-shaped crystals having microscale sizes mixed with the resin;
- wherein a content of the needle-shaped crystals in the mixture is within a range of 10 phr to 25 phr.
A composite rim which is made by curing an assembly comprising a prepreg used for manufacturing a main body of the composite rim and a reinforced prepreg adhered onto the prepreg, the reinforced prepreg forming a wear-resistant layer structure on the main body after being cured, the reinforced prepreg comprising:
- a fiber fabric made of liquid crystal polymer fibers;
- and
- a mixture mixed with the fiber fabric, the mixture comprising:
- a resin;
- and
- a plurality of needle-shaped crystals having microscale sizes mixed with the resin;
- wherein a content of the needle-shaped crystals in the mixture is within a range of 10 phr to 25 phr.
