A method of fabricating a composite material casing of varying thickness for a gas turbine includes using three-dimensional or multilayer weaving to make a fiber texture in the form of a strip; winding the fiber texture as a plurality of superposed layers onto a mandrel of profile corresponding to the profile of the casing to be fabricated, so as to obtain a fiber preform of shape corresponding to the shape of the casing to be fabricated; and densifying the fiber preform with a matrix. During winding of the fiber texture on the mandrel, a textile strip is interposed between the adjacent turns of the fiber texture, the textile strip presenting a width that is less than the width of the fiber texture and defining a retention zone of the casing.

Provided is a PSA sheet capable of suitably preventing bubble formation caused by outgassing. This invention provides a PSA sheet comprising a PSA layer that forms an adhesive face. In an aging test where the adhesive face is press-bonded to a glass plate and stored at 50° C. for 24 hours, the PSA sheet has at least 5% post-aging non-bonding area Sa, with Sa defined as the ratio of all areas non-bonding to the glass plate relative to the total area of the adhesive face. The non-bonding areas have parts linearly extending along the adhesive face.

An integrally molded body has a bonding resin (C) interposed between a board (A) and a member (B), one surface of the board being a design surface, wherein: inside the member (B), a first bonding section disposed to space apart the board (A) and the member (B) and by which at least a partial region of an outer peripheral edge section of the board (A) bonds to the bonding resin (C), is provided; and at least at a part of the design surface-side surface of the integrally molded body, a region where the board (A), the member (B), and the bonding resin (C) are exposed is provided. A plurality of structures can be bonded with high bonding strength and allows for the bonding boundary thereof to have favorable smoothness, thereby making it possible to mitigate warping and reduce weight and thickness even when the molded body has a board constituent member.
