Abstract
A structural member of a vehicle includes a metal body, a first resin layer and a second resin layer. The metal body is made of metal. The first resin layer is provided on the metal body in a layering direction and includes a first thermoplastic resin. The second resin layer is provided on the first resin layer in the layering direction and includes a second thermoplastic resin and carbon fiber.
Claims16
A structural member of a vehicle, comprising:
- a metal base material;
- and
- a resin layer containing thermoplastic resin and formed on the base material, wherein:
- the resin layer has a first resin layer and a second resin layer in this order from the base material side;
- and
- at least the second resin layer contains carbon fiber.
A structural member of a vehicle, comprising:
- a metal base material;
- and
- a resin layer containing thermoplastic resin and formed on the base material, wherein
- the resin layer contains carbon fiber oriented in one direction.
A structural member of a vehicle, comprising:
- a metal body made of metal;
- a first resin layer provided on the metal body in a layering direction and comprising a first thermoplastic resin;
- and
- a second resin layer provided on the first resin layer in the layering direction and comprising a second thermoplastic resin and carbon fiber.
A structural member of a vehicle, comprising:
- a metal body made of metal;
- and
- a resin layer provided on the metal body and comprising a thermoplastic resin and carbon fiber oriented in one direction.
A method of manufacturing a structural member of a vehicle, comprising:
- providing a first resin layer comprising a first thermoplastic resin on a metal body made of metal in a layering direction;
- providing a second resin layer comprising carbon fiber and a second thermoplastic resin on the metal body via the first resin layer in the layering direction;
- and
- heating the first thermoplastic resin to a temperature higher than a glass-transition temperature of the first thermoplastic resin to bond the second resin layer to the metal body.
