Fabric for carbon fiber reinforced composite material and method of manufacturing the same
A method of manufacturing a fabric for a carbon fiber reinforced composite material includes binding a front texture woven with warp threads and weft threads which are carbon fibers and a back texture woven with warp threads and weft threads which are thermoplastic resin fibers at binding points to integrate the front texture and the back texture.
1. A fabric for a carbon fiber reinforced composite material, the fabric formed by partially binding a front texture, in which warp threads and weft threads are carbon fibers, and a back texture, in which warp threads and weft threads are thermoplastic resin fibers, at binding points so that the front texture and the back texture are integrated with each other,
wherein a quantity of the binding points at which the front texture and the back texture are bound together is in a range of one percent to ten percent of a total quantity of interlaced points between the warp and weft threads of the front and back textures, and
wherein the binding points are formed by weaving the weft threads of the front texture and the warp threads of the back texture into each other at locations that are adjacent and subsequent to locations at which the warp threads of the back texture are drawn over the weft threads of the back texture.
2. The fabric for the carbon fiber reinforced composite material according to claim 1 , wherein the front texture and the back texture are plain-woven textures.
3. The fabric for the carbon fiber reinforced composite material according to claim 1 , wherein the front texture and the back texture are twill 2/2 woven textures.
4. A method of manufacturing a fabric for a carbon fiber reinforced composite material, the method comprising:
weaving a front texture with warp threads and weft threads which are carbon fibers and a back texture with warp threads and weft threads which are thermoplastic resin fibers in conjunction with partially weaving the carbon fibers in the front texture and the thermoplastic resin fibers in the back texture into each other at binding points to bind the front texture and the back texture to obtain an integrated bound dual-layered fabric, and
wherein a quantity of the binding points at which the front texture and the back texture are bound together is in a range of one percent to ten percent of a total quantity of interlaced points between the warp and weft threads of the front and back textures, and
wherein the binding points are formed by weaving the weft threads of the front texture and the warp threads of the back texture into each other at locations that are adjacent and subsequent to locations at which the warp threads of the back texture are drawn over the weft threads of the back texture.
