Abstract

A molding method which includes charging a resin composition in molten state containing not less than 7 wt % to less than 30 wt % of a fibrous fiber (A) and more than 70 wt % to not exceeding 93 wt % of a resin (B) into a die for shaping purpose when a temperature of the die is in the range of [the Vicat softening point minus 20° C.] of resin (B) to less than a melting point thereof, when resin (B) is crystalline resin, or when a temperature of the die is in the range of [the Vicat softening point minus 20° C.] to [the Vicat softening point plus 20° C.] of the resin (B), when resin (B) is non-crystalline resin, cooling the die after shaping to temperature which allows taking-out of a molded product.

Claims (12)

1. A molding method for manufacturing a resin molding by charging a resin composition comprising fibrous filler (A) and crystalline resin (B) in molten state into a die by injection, the resin composition comprising not less than 7 wt % to less than 30 wt % of the fibrous filler (A) and more than 70 wt % to not exceeding 93 wt % of the crystalline resin (B), the method comprising:

charging the resin composition in a molten state into the die when a temperature of the die is in a range of Vicat softening point −20° C. to less than a melting point of the resin (B), thereby shaping the resin composition,

after the resin composition is shaped, holding the temperature of the die for a predetermined time in a temperature range from a crystallization temperature −10° C. to the crystallization temperature +10° C. of the crystalline resin (B), and

cooling down the die to a temperature which allows taking-out of a molded product.

2. The molding method according to claim 1 , wherein shaping of the resin composition is performed when a temperature of the die is in the range of the Vicat softening temperature −10° C. to the melting point −10° C. of the resin (B).

3. The molding method according to claim 1 , wherein the temperature range for said holding is from the crystallization temperature −10° C. to the crystallization temperature of the resin (B).

4. The molding method according to claim 1 , wherein the resin composition comprises 10 wt % or more and 25 wt % or less of the fibrous filler (A).

5. A resin molding manufactured by the molding method of claim 1 .

6. The resin molding method according to claim 1 , wherein the crystalline resin is polyolefin resin.

7. The resin molding method according to claim 1 , wherein the predetermined time is from 10 to 300 seconds.

8. The resin molding method according to claim 1 , wherein the predetermined time is from 30 to 200 seconds.

9. The resin molding method according to claim 1 , wherein the fibrous filler (A) has a fiber diameter of less than 25 μm.
