Abstract
Abstract A continuous process for producing reinforced resin laminates comprising the steps of impregnating a fibrous substrate with a liquid resin which is free of volatile solvent and is capable of curing without generating liquid and gaseous byproducts, laminating a plurality of the resin-impregnated substrates into a unitary member, sandwiching the laminate between a pair of covering sheets, and curing the laminate between said pair of covering sheets without applying appreciable pressure. The improvement comprises adjusting the final resin content in said resin impregnated substrate at 10 to 90% by weight based on the total weight of said impregnated substrate.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim
218 words
In a continuous process for producing metal clad reinforced resin laminates comprising the steps of impregnating a fibrous cellulosic substrate with a liquid thermosetting unsaturated polyester resin which is free of volatile solvent and is capable of curing without generating liquid and gaseous by-products to a final resin content in the resin-impregnated substrate from 10 to 90% by weight based upon the total weight of said resin-impregnated substrate, laminating a plurality of the resin-impregnated substrates into a unitary member, sandwiching the laminate between a pair of covering sheets, at least one of said pair of covering sheets being a cladding metal foil capable of permanently bonding to said resin-impregnated substrates after the laminate is cured, and curing the laminate while supporting the same between said pair of covering sheets without applying any appreciable pressure, the improvement comprising: preimpregnating the fibrous cellulosic substrate, prior to impregnation with said liquid resin, with a liquid containing a component selected from the group consisting of (i) a modified aminotriazinemethylol compound having an unsaturated bond capable of copolymerizing with a polymerizable monomer and (ii) an N-methylol compound free of said unsaturated bond and a polyfunctional compound having both a functional group capable of a condensation or addition reaction with the N-methylol compound and an unsaturated bond capable of copolymerizing with a polymerizable monomer.
