Abstract
Disclosed is a fiber/resin composite comprising fibers (A), polypropylene resin (B) and modified polyolefin resin (C), the weight ratio of the polypropylene resin (B) to the modified polyolefin resin (C) being 99.9/0.1 to 60/40, the modified polyolefin resin (C) having a melt flow rate of 30 to 150 g/10 min, the fibers (A) being arranged parallel to each other in one direction, the composite having a length of 2 to 100 mm along the direction in which the fibers (A) are arranged, the fibers (A) having a weight average length equal to the length of the composite, wherein the polypropylene resin (B) is composed of propylene homopolymer segment (B- ) and propylene-ethylene copolymer segment (B- ), the propylene homopolymer segment (B- ) having an isotactic pentad fraction of at least 0.980 and the content of the propylene-ethylene copolymer segment (B- ) in the polypropylene resin (B) being 10 to 40% by weight.
