A prepreg which is suitable for producing a fiber-reinforced composite material in a short period of time without using an autoclave, can produce a fiber-reinforced composite material in which the occurrence of voids is suppressed and excellent impact resistance is achieved, and has excellent handling properties; and a fiber-reinforced composite material using the prepreg. This prepreg is a prepreg in which a reinforcing fiber [A] arranged in layers is partially impregnated with an epoxy resin composition containing an epoxy resin [B] and a curing agent [C], wherein the impregnation rate &#x3c6; is 30-95%, and a thermoplastic resin [D] insoluble in the epoxy resin [B] is unevenly distributed on both surfaces of the prepreg. In addition, in the layers of the reinforcing fiber [A], epoxy resin composition-unimpregnated portions are localized on one surface of the prepreg, and the localization parameter a, which defines the degree of localization, is in the range of 0.10&#x3c;&#x3c3;&#x3c;0.45.

Prepreg, prepreg laminate, and fiber-reinforced composite material

A method for producing an active material particle for a lithium ion battery, the method including steps of: flowing a plurality of raw material solutions into respective raw material-feeding channels under a pressure of 0.3 to 500 MPa, the solutions being capable of inducing a chemical reaction when mixed, thereby producing an active material particle for a lithium ion battery or an active material precursor particle for a lithium ion battery; and mixing the plurality of raw material solutions at a junction of the raw material-feeding channels to induce the chemical reaction, thereby continuously producing an active material particle for a lithium ion battery or producing an active material precursor particle for a lithium ion battery.

Method for producing lithium ion cell active material particles

The present invention makes a lithium ion secondary cell exhibit high capacity when lithium manganese phosphate is used as the active material of the lithium ion secondary cell.
