Abstract
A composite member includes an inorganic matrix part made from an inorganic substance including at least one of a metal oxide or a metal oxide hydroxide and an organic fiber that is directly fixed to the inorganic matrix part without interposing an adhesive substance different from the inorganic substance making up the inorganic matrix part and is present in a dispersed state within the inorganic matrix part. The composite member has a porosity of 20% or less in a section of the inorganic matrix part.
Claims10
A composite member comprising:
- an inorganic matrix part comprising multiple particles made from an inorganic substance including at least one of a metal oxide or a metal oxide hydroxide, the particles of the inorganic substance bonding with each other to form the inorganic matrix part;
- and
- an organic fiber that is directly fixed to the inorganic matrix part without interposing an adhesive substance different from the inorganic substance making up the inorganic matrix part and is present in a dispersed state within the inorganic matrix part,
- wherein the particles of the inorganic substance bond with each other via a connection part derived from the inorganic substance,
- wherein the inorganic substance is a polycrystalline substance, and the connection part is an amorphous part containing an amorphous inorganic compound,
- wherein the particles of the inorganic substance and the amorphous part contain the same metal element,
- wherein the composite member has a porosity of 20% or less in a section of the inorganic matrix part,
- wherein a ratio of a volume of the organic fiber to a volume of the inorganic matrix part is less than 20%, and
- wherein the inorganic matrix part contains no hydrate.
