Abstract:
To provide a manufacturing method for a composite material, a manufacturing apparatus for a composite material, a preform for a composite material, and a composite material capable of reducing a molding time and an equipment cost by controlling flowing of resin in a cavity. A method of manufacturing a composite material  100  provided with a reinforcement  510  and a resin  600  infused into the reinforcement, includes: an applying process of applying an adhesive  520  to the sheet-shaped reinforcement having first and second regions  501  and  502  such that a content density of the adhesive of the second region is lower than that of the first region; a preforming process of forming a preform  500  by preforming the reinforcement; and a process of molding a composite material  400  by infusing the resin  600  into the preform. The resin injected into the cavity easily flows in a portion of the cavity  350  there the second region of the reinforcement is placed, compared to a portion of the cavity where the first region of the reinforcement is placed.

Claim (Index 12):
A manufacturing method for a composite material provided with a reinforcement and resin infused into the reinforcement, comprising:\n applying an adhesive to the sheet-shaped reinforcement having first and second regions such that a content density of the adhesive of the second region is lower than that of the first region; forming a preform by preforming the reinforcement; placing the preform in a cavity of a mold such that the first region is placed in the vicinity of the injection port of the mold relative to the second region; and injecting the resin into the cavity from an injection port of the mold to infuse the resin into the preform and mold the composite material.
