Treating reinforcing fibers with carbodiimide aqueous dispersion

摘要

The present invention provides: an aqueous surface-treating agent used for surface treatment of reinforcing material, which includes a carbodiimide compound as a main component, a reinforcing material surface-treated with the above aqueous surface-treating agent, and a composite material comprising a matrix and the above reinforcing material. The aqueous surface-treating agent has good storage stability, gives no bad effect on human health owing to no use of organic solvent and, when used for the surface treatment of a reinforcing material, can provide a surface-treated reinforcing material which can produce a composite material comprising a matrix, the surface-treated reinforcing material having high adhesivity between the two components.
