Abstract:
In a method to make a fiber reinforced composite material obtained by molding a thermosetting resin, such as epoxy resin or polyester resin, reinforced with fibers, such as carbon, aramid or glass fibers,a method to make a thermosetting resin based, rubber vulcanization type, fiber reinforced composite material comprising the steps of:molding sheet materials composed of said thermosetting resin together with an unvulcanized nitrile rubber sheet into a desired shape; andheating together said sheet materials and said rubber sheet, molded into said desired shape, to approximately 150.degree. C., thereby simultaneously accomplishing a setting treatment for said thermosetting resin and a vulcanization treatment for said rubber material, and integrally bonding said sheet material and said rubber sheet together in an interlocking fashion.
