The present invention relates to a method for producing a prepreg which contains reinforcing fibers and a matrix resin composition with the weight per square meter of the reinforcing fibers being 250-2,000 g/m. The production method comprises the following steps (1)-(3): (1) a matrix resin composition blending step for obtaining a matrix resin composition by mixing an epoxy resin, a radically polymerizable unsaturated compound, an epoxy resin curing agent and a polymerization initiator that generates radicals, in said step the content of the radically polymerizable unsaturated compound relative to 100% by mass of the total of the epoxy resin and the radically polymerizable unsaturated compound being 10-25% by mass; (2) a matrix resin composition impregnating step; and (3) a surface viscosity increasing step.

Matrix resin composition, prepreg and method for producing the same, and fiber-reinforced composite material

Provided is a method for producing a good epoxy resin composition for obtaining fiber-reinforced plastics. A production method for obtaining a fiber-reinforced composite material by impregnating a fiber assembly with an epoxy resin composition and then curing the epoxy resin composition, wherein the epoxy resin composition contains a component [A], a component [B] and a component [C] respectively satisfying the conditions described below. When the blending amount of the component [B] is set to b parts by mass and the blending amount of the component [C] is set to c parts by mass relative to 100 parts by mass of the component [A] contained in the epoxy resin composition, formula (2) is satisfied within the range of formula (1), formula (4) is satisfied within the range of formula (3), and formula (6) is satisfied within the range of formula (5).

Production method for obtaining fiber-reinforced composite material, and epoxy resin composition used therein

The invention relates to a prepreg containing a reinforcing fiber, a sheet-like reinforcing fiber substrate including the reinforcing fiber, and a matrix resin, wherein the matrix resin is impregnated into the sheet-like reinforcing fiber substrate and also covers one surface of the sheet-like reinforcing fiber substrate, such that the matrix resin impregnation ratio is within a range of 35% to 95%. The invention also relates to a prepreg containing a reinforcing fiber substrate in the form of a sheet and formed from a reinforcing fiber woven fabric, and a matrix resin, wherein at least one surface of the reinforcing fiber substrate displays a sea-and-island-type pattern with resin-impregnated portions (island portions) and fiber portions (sea portions), such that a surface coverage of the matrix resin is within a range of 3% to 80%.
