Reinforced fiber blank and process of manufacturing same

摘要

A reinforced fiber blank and process of manufacturing same are provided. The process includes passing a continuous fiber sheet through a bath of thermoplastic resin so that the thermoplastic resin permeates the continuous fiber sheet to form a continuous fiber substrate permeated with the thermoplastic resin; stacking at least one fiber substrate and at least one thermoplastic resin layer to form a stack; and heating and pressing the stack at a temperature between about 60° C. and 150° C. to produce the finished reinforced fiber blank.
