Description
Carbon fiber prepreg laminated plate with improved flatness The present invention relates to a carbon fiber prepreg laminate with improved flatness, and more specifically, to a carbon fiber prepreg laminate with improved flatness that has excellent flatness by suppressing the occurrence of bending due to residual stress while having a thin thickness of 200 μm or less when manufacturing carbon fiber composite materials. In general, carbon fiber composites are widely used in sports and leisure, aircraft, automobiles, railways, electronics, and other general industries due to their high specific strength and specific modulus of elasticity. Furthermore, particularly in the automotive sector, there is a growing demand for vehicle lightweighting in recent years driven by regulations on carbon dioxide emissions and fuel efficiency, and carbon fiber composites are attracting attention as a material capable of meeting these demands. Prepreg, an intermediate product in which carbon fibers are pre-impregnated with a matrix resin, is applied as a method for manufacturing such carbon fiber composites. When manufacturing carbon fiber composites using prepreg, it is easy to increase the fiber content, which significantly affects the mechanical properties of the carbon fiber composite, or to uniformly manage the target fiber content; it is also easy to reduce internal defects such as voids and improve properties such as heat resistance or impact strength. Unidirectional carbon fiber prepregs, widely used as such prepregs, are representative anisotropic materials characterized by differences in physical properties between the fiber direction and the direction perpendicular to the fibers. Due to these differences in properties depending on the fiber direction, carbon fiber composites formed by laminating unidirectional carbon fiber prepregs exhibit warping of the molded plate caused by differences in the coefficient of thermal expansion depending on the direction and the resulting residual stress. In particular, carbon fiber composite materials used as structural materials generally have a thick thickness, so residual stress caused by the high bending stiffness of the material itself can be ignored. However, as the thickness of the carbon fiber composite molded plate decreases, residual stress becomes higher than the bending stiffness, making it easier for bending to occur, and there is a problem of reduced flatness due to localized bending.
