Abstract
A method for producing a fiber-reinforced resin composition including supplying a plurality of fiber bundles (1) into an impregnation chamber (10); supplying a molten thermoplastic resin from a resin flow inlet (4) into the impregnation chamber (10) so that the amount of the resin flow is almost the same on on each side the direction perpendicular to the fiber bundle (1) progress direction; contacting the molten thermoplastic resin with the fiber bundles (1) to impregnate the fiber bundles (1) with the molten thermoplastic resin; and withdrawing the fiber bundles (1) impregnated with the molten thermoplastic resin from the impregnation chamber (10).
Claims13
A method for producing a fiber-reinforced resin composition comprising:
- supplying a plurality of fiber bundles into an enclosed space having a box-shape within an impregnation chamber, in which enclosed space having a box-shape threshold plates are provided, some of the plurality of fiber bundles passing between the threshold plates along at least part of longitudinal sides of the impregnation chamber;
- supplying a molten thermoplastic resin from a plurality of resin flow inlets into the enclosed space, the plurality of resin flow inlets being almost symmetrically positioned relative to the direction of progress of the fiber bundles on opposing faces of the impregnation chamber, so that the pressure of resin flow from the resin flow inlets of one opposed face is almost the same as the pressure of resin flow from the resin flow inlets of the other opposed face;
- contacting the molten thermoplastic resin with the fiber bundles in the impregnation chamber to impregnate the fiber bundles with the molten thermoplastic resin;
- and
- withdrawing the fiber bundles impregnated with the molten thermoplastic resin from the impregnation chamber.
A method for producing a fiber-reinforced resin composition comprising:
- supplying a plurality of fiber bundles into an impregnation chamber having an enclosed box-shaped space and threshold plates provided within the enclosed box-shaped space, some of the fiber bundles passing between threshold plates along at least part of longitudinal sides of the impregnation chamber;
- wherein the impregnation chamber has two opposed faces, each face has at least one resin flow inlet, and the resin flow inlet(s) on each opposed face are positioned almost symmetrically with respect to the resin flow inlet(s) on the other opposed face;
- supplying a molten thermoplastic resin from the resin flow inlets into the enclosed space so that the amount of resin flow from the resin flow inlet(s) of one opposed face is almost the same as the amount of resin flow from the resin flow inlet(s) of the other opposed face;
- contacting the molten thermoplastic resin with the fiber bundles to impregnate the fiber bundles with the molten thermoplastic resin;
- and
- withdrawing the fiber bundles impregnated with the molten thermoplastic resin from the impregnation chamber.
