Abstract
Provided are a polycarbonate fiber having a specific orientation degree and/or a specific birefringence value, a fiber structure as well as a resin composite body. The polycarbonate fiber may have an orientation degree (ft) of lower than 0.70, the orientation degree (ft) being defined by the following formula: ft=1−(1.0/C)2, C: obtained sonic velocity (km/sec), and may have a birefringence value of 0.04 or lower. The polycarbonate fiber may comprise a polycarbonate resin having a number-average molecular weight (Mn) of from 12000 to 40000 and/or a weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of from 25000 to 80000.
Claims20
A polycarbonate fiber having an orientation degree (ft) of lower than 0.70 and comprising a polycarbonate resin having a weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of from 45000 to 80000, wherein the orientation degree (ft) is defined by the following formula:
- ft=1−(1.0/C)2
- where C is sonic velocity in terms of km/see of the polycarbonate fiber.
A polycarbonate fiber having a birefringence value of 0.040 or lower and comprising a polycarbonate resin having a weight-average molecular weight (Mw) of from 45000 to 80000.
