CARBON FIBER CORD FOR REINFORCING RUBBER ARTICLE AND RUBBER ARTICLE USING SAME

摘要

The present invention provides a carbon fiber cord having both high bending fatigue resistance and high adhesiveness. The disclosed carbon fiber cord is a carbon fiber cord for reinforcing a rubber product. This carbon fiber cord includes a carbon fiber, a first coating layer formed on the carbon fiber, and a second coating layer formed over the first coating layer. The first coating layer contains a phenolic resin and does not contain a rubber component. The second coating layer contains a rubber component. The mass ratio of the first coating layer to the total mass of the carbon fiber and the first coating layer is in a range of 0.5% to 10%.
