A resin molding includes a plate-like substrate including reinforcing fibers and a first thermoplastic resin binding the reinforcing fibers to each other, and an extension part that is constituted of an injection-molded member and is extended from an end surface of the substrate along the plate face direction of the substrate. It is preferred that the reinforcing fibers be plant fibers, such as kenaf. It is preferred that the substrate and the extension part be connected flush to each other on, of the one surface and the other surface of the connection part of the substrate and the extension part, at least the side of one surface. Moreover, the extension part may further be provided with a plate-like part that constitutes an outer edge part of the resin molding and forms a shape involute toward the other surface. The method for producing a resin molding includes a shaping step of shaping the substrate and an extension part formation step of forming the extension part by injection-molding.

A method for preparing a composite material that includes the steps of: (i) heat treating natural lignocellulosic fibers at a temperature of 130 to 320° C. for 2 minutes to 24 hours in an atmosphere oxygen-deficient in and in the presence of water vapor, and (ii) mixing the heat treated natural lignocellulosic fibers with at least one thermoplastic polymer in the molten state and whose melting point is less than or equal to 230° C. The method is useful for producing vehicle parts from a composite material having natural lignocellulosic fibers with reduced volatile organic compound odor emissions.

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a resin composition for forming three-dimensionally shaped objects having high dimensional accuracy. In order to achieve the purpose, the resin composition is used in a three-dimensional shaping method wherein either forming a thin layer that comprises a particulate resin composition and selectively irradiating the thin layer with laser light are repeated or melt-extruding a resin composition into a filament shape and forming a layer of the filament-shaped extruded resin composition are repeated, thereby forming a three-dimensionally shaped object. The resin composition has a particulate or filament shape, comprises polysaccharide nanofibers and a resin, and has a content of the polysaccharide nanofibers of 1-70 mass %. In the resin composition, the maximum value of loss modulus at temperatures in the range of (melting temperature)±20° C. is 10-1,000 times the minimum value of loss modulus at temperatures in the range of (melting temperature)±20° C.

A composite can include cellulose fiber; and foam binding the cellulose fiber. A method for manufacturing a composite can comprise mixing a plurality of ingredients to form a pre-foam mixture; foaming the pre-foam mixture to produce a foam; mixing the foam with cellulose fiber to form a composite material; and curing the composite material.

The complex of the present disclosure includes a thermoplastic particle constituted of a thermoplastic material and an inorganic particle surface-treated with at least one surface treatment agent selected from the group consisting of fluorine-containing compounds and silicon-containing compounds and further includes a composite particle composed of the thermoplastic particle and the inorganic particle adhered to the thermoplastic particle.

A small piece supplying apparatus includes: a raw material supplying section that supplies a raw material sheet; a coarse crushing section that coarsely crushes the raw material sheet supplied from the raw material supplying section to produce small pieces; and a reservoir section in which the small pieces produced by the coarse crushing section are accumulated. The raw material supplying section includes a feeder roller that feeds out the raw material sheet, and a contact section that changes a course of the raw material sheet by contact with an edge of the raw material sheet fed out by the feeder roller.

A process for producing a precursor material comprising the steps of, agitating a polymer material and a fibre material in a blending device comprising a blending means operating at a velocity sufficient to bring about an increase of the temperature to at least a temperature beyond the VI CAT softening point or within or beyond the melting temperature range of the polymer material. Thereafter, maintaining the velocity of the blending means and, when the specific motor power needed to maintain the velocity of the blending means increases by a predetermined amount or reaches a predetermined value, reducing the velocity. Repeating the previous step as necessary, until the velocity falls below a first threshold value to form an intermediate material. Finally, comminuting the formed intermediate material in a comminuting device comprising a comminuting means operating at a velocity allowing a decrease in temperature, until the temperature falls below a second threshold value.

Bio-composite pultruded products (100, 104, 107, 110, 114, 117) either in “I” profile or “Plate” profile of higher cross sectional area where said products consisting essentially natural fibres selected from hemp, jute, sisal and. flex as core impregnated with a resin system comprise of at least one resin, curing system comprising a curing agent and an accelerator, a filler, a thinner, pigment or any other additives; encapsulated between bi-directionally and/or uni-directionally oriented synthetic fabric selected from polyester, carbon, aramid, glass, basalt and mixtures thereof impregnated with said resin system are provided. in another bio-composite pultruded products either of “I” profile or “Plate” profile of higher cross sectional area where said products consisting of plank of short fibers bagasse premixed with the said resin system as core is enclosed between the natural fibers selected from hemp, jute, sisal and flex impregnated with the resin system which is further enclosed between bi-directionally and/or uni-directionally oriented synthetic fabric selected from polyester, carbon, aramid, glass, basalt and mixtures thereof impregnated with the resin system. The system and method for the preparations of said bio-composite pultruded products, are also illustrated herein. These products lead to a significant reduction in weight and reduction in density with higher stiffness and bending strength. The present bio-composite products are encapsulated by fabrics in the peripheral area brings more integrity uniformity of jute materials. This leads to a significant cost reduction in a without sacrificing much tensile strength.
