DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to
Excellent heat insulation and shock energy absorption,
The present invention relates to a laminate including air, a structure using the laminate as a core layer, a method for manufacturing the laminate, and a method for manufacturing the structure.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a conventional laminate, a resin sandwich structure in which a core layer containing an air layer (bubbles) is sandwiched between two skin layers has a strength of a skin layer and a core layer. It has excellent properties such as light weight, heat retention, heat insulation and impact energy absorption. As the core layer used for the purpose of obtaining these excellent properties, a foam containing a plurality of independent cells may be used.

[0003] However, the foam used as the core layer of the conventional sandwich structure has an extremely low elastic modulus. When a high elastic modulus is required for the entire sandwich structure, the core layer is thickened to form the sandwich structure. The overall thickness must be increased. In addition, the sandwich structure including the core layer made of the foam has excellent rebound characteristics against surface impact, but has low shock absorption characteristics when the sandwich structure is destroyed, and particularly, a collision object colliding with the sandwich structure. However, there is a problem in that the property of preventing the penetration of the material through the sandwich structure is low.

[0004] While a foam is used as the core layer as described above, there is a sandwich structure using a fiber layer such as a woven or nonwoven layer as the core layer. In a sandwich structure including a core layer made of a fiber, the shock absorbing properties when the sandwich structure is broken, in particular, when the impact object is Thus, the above-mentioned problems in the sandwich structure using the foam as the core layer can be solved to some extent. In a sandwich structure using a fiber layer such as a woven fabric layer or a nonwoven fabric layer as the core layer, the air layer is included in the woven fabric layer serving as the core layer or in the nonwoven fabric layer. What is necessary is just to make the woven or nonwoven fabric to be a laminated structure.

On the other hand, pages 79 to 82 of the 28th FRP Symposium Proceedings, on the effective use (recycling method) of various forms of fiber waste discarded by textile-related companies, Teruo Kimura, A document by Dohiko Terada, “Compression molding of sandwich laminates using fishing net fiber waste and molded article properties” (II-4B) is described. According to this document by Teruo Kimura and Dohiko Terada, only the surface of a single-piece fiber waste aggregate is melted by far-infrared heating, then compressed and solidified, the surface layer is a plastic plate, and the core layer is air. A method for forming a sandwich laminate having excellent strength and heat insulating properties comprising a fibrous layer containing the same is described. In the method for forming a sandwich laminate, a material having a lower melting point than the core layer is disposed as a surface layer, and only the material having a lower melting point is heated and melted, and then is compressed and solidified. Specifically, using string-like polyester and polyethylene fishing net waste with melting points that differ greatly, a low-melting polyethylene is placed on the surface layer and a high-melting polyester is placed on the core layer, and only the polyethylene layer on the surface is melted and solidified. As a result, a sandwich-like heat insulating plate is formed.

[0006] In the above document, an air-containing core layer made of a high-melting polyester knitted fabric is sandwiched between two skin layers made of a low-melting-point polyethylene knitted fabric, and only two skin layers are formed. Are described by melting and solidifying the three-layer structure. Apart from the three-layer structure, a five-layer structure in which a polyester knitted fabric layer is disposed on both sides of a low-melting-point polyethylene knitted fabric layer, and two skin layers each made of a polyethylene knitted fabric. It describes a structure in which a polyethylene knitted fabric layer is sandwiched between polyester layers and two skin layers are melt-solidified. This five-layer structure uses two polyester knitted fabric layers as the core layer in order to increase the air-containing portion of the core layer between the two skin layers for the purpose of improving heat insulation. In this five-layer structure, in order to increase the strength of the five-layer structure by adhering the two polyester knitted fabric layers, the role of an adhesive is provided between the two polyester knitted fabric layers. A polyethylene layer has been inserted. By such a method, it is possible to mold a sandwich-like plate material containing a large number of air layers inside, and also to obtain a very flexible molded product, and to increase the thickness of the surface polyethylene layer in the molded product. Thereby, a large bending strength can be obtained.

On pages 75 to 78 of the 28th FRP Symposium Proceedings, Terumo Kimura and Koichi Emori describe a method of reusing a large amount of fiber waste generated from a fiber-related factory without grinding and sorting. And "Compact molding of fiber-reinforced composite material using PVC-coated glass cloth scraps and molded article properties" (II-3B). According to the documents by Teruo Kimura and Koichi Emori, in order to develop an effective use method of PVC-coated glass fiber scraps that are difficult to dispose of, several pieces of these scraps are laminated and heated and compressed. It describes the formation of a fiber reinforced composite material. Specifically, as fiber waste, a predetermined number of glass fiber woven cloth end materials coated with PVC are laminated in a mold, and the laminated material is heated and compressed using a hot press to a thickness of 7 mm. It describes that a plate material is formed. As a composition of the material of the fiber waste, JIS-17B glass fiber woven fabric (130 g / mm ² ) is coated with soft PVC (PVC) at a rate of 300 g / mm ² . According to this document, although the characteristics of molded products made using PVC-coated glass cloth scraps are greatly affected by molding temperature and molding time, very flexible materials with strength are obtained. It is stated that it will be. In addition, it is described that such a molded product can be used as an impact absorbing material, a vibration damping soundproofing material, and the like.

[0008] Further, on pages 143 and 144 of the 28th FRP Symposium Proceedings, there is described a woven structure having excellent mechanical properties as a form of reinforcing fiber widely used as a material for marine structures such as ships. Mitsugu Higashito, Mikinari Fujii and Kiyoshi Takahashi, "Impact Properties of Unsaturated Polyester Reinforced with Glass Fibers: Influence of Reinforcement by Four-Axis Fabric" (I-2)
Reference 1A) is described. In this document, as the structure of the glass long fiber reinforced unsaturated polyester produced as a test material, there are used three types of structures, namely, four-axis fabric, plain weave, and random, and the composite material corresponding to each structure has a thickness of It is manufactured as a 3 mm-thick laminated plate. In addition, a laminate having a sandwich structure in which a four-axis fabric material and a plain weave material are sandwiched by random materials has also been manufactured. An approximately 100 mm x 100 mm square plate was cut out from each of the two laminates and the three types of laminates, and each of the cut out pieces was used as an impact test piece to perform an impact test using an instrumented falling weight impact tester. Has been done.

In the above-described impact test, impact resistance is compared by measuring the impact absorption energy of each of the five types of glass fiber reinforced unsaturated polyester having different reinforcing structures as described above. As a result,
A composite material having a reinforced structure of a four-axis fabric, which can be manufactured at lower cost than a cloth material, has an impact resistance comparable to that of the cloth material, especially at low energy.

[0010]

However, as described above, in a sandwich structure in which the woven fabric constituting the woven fabric layer has a laminated structure so that the air layer is included in the woven fabric layer serving as the core layer. The bonding between the core layer and the skin layer is performed between the outermost woven fabric and the skin layer in the core layer, and the outermost woven fabric among the woven fabrics laminated in the core layer. Since only the fabric participates in the adhesion to the skin layer, the interaction between the skin layer and the core layer occurs only via the outermost woven fabric in the core layer. Therefore, there is little interaction between the skin layer and the core layer in the laminating direction of the skin layer and the core layer, and therefore, there is a problem that the mechanical properties of the stress in the sandwich structure in the laminating direction are extremely weak. Therefore, a sandwich structure including a core layer formed by laminating a woven or nonwoven fabric maximizes the elongation characteristics at the time of fiber breakage when a collision object penetrates the structure and the structure breaks. Since it cannot be used, it is not the best impact energy absorbing member.

[0011] An object of the present invention is to provide a structure comprising a cloth member and an air-containing core layer sandwiched between two skin layers, wherein the core layer and the skin layer in the stacking direction of the structure are provided. Used as a core layer capable of increasing the elastic modulus and impact energy absorption characteristics of the entire structure by sufficiently obtaining the interaction of the above, a structure having the laminate, and a method of manufacturing the laminate And a method of manufacturing the structure.

In the above invention, the two cloth members are joined to each other through the hole of the mesh member sandwiched between the two cloth members for forming the gas-containing layer.
Even when the fabric members in the laminate have a laminated structure in order to contain air inside the laminate, the interaction between the fabric members when an impact is applied to the laminate can be sufficiently obtained. Impact energy absorption characteristics, especially the energy absorption characteristics against surface impact, are improved. In addition, since continuous air is contained in the inside of the laminate, a laminate excellent particularly in impact energy absorption characteristics in addition to lightness, heat retention, heat insulation and the like is realized. In addition, due to the interaction between the cloth members due to the fact that the cloth members are joined through the holes of the net-like member, the impact energy absorption characteristics of the laminate when the collision object penetrates the laminate are also improved, and thus the configuration is made. The laminated body thus obtained is particularly effective as a shock absorbing member. Such a laminate is used, for example, as a core layer sandwiched between two skin layers such as a plate member in a sandwich structure. In a structure configured using the above laminate as a core layer, the structure Interaction between the inside of the core layer and the skin layer when an impact is applied to the structure increases the elastic modulus and impact energy absorption characteristics of the entire structure.

As described above, when the impact is applied to the structure, the interaction between the cloth members in the laminate and the interaction between the inside of the laminate and the plate member are sufficiently obtained, so that the elasticity of the entire structure is improved. Thus, the impact energy absorption characteristics of the entire structure, particularly the energy absorption characteristics against surface impact, are improved. Since continuous air is contained in the interior of the laminate, a structure having particularly excellent impact energy absorption characteristics in addition to lightness, heat retention, heat insulation, and the like is realized. Further, due to the above-mentioned interaction caused by the cloth members being joined through the holes of the net-like member, the impact energy absorption characteristics of the structure when the collision object penetrates the structure are also improved.

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

(First Embodiment) FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing a structure having a laminated body according to a first embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing a core layer disposed inside the structure shown in FIG.

As shown in FIG. 1, the sandwich structure 1 as the structure of the present embodiment is composed of two plate members for forming a skin layer which is the outermost layer of the sandwich structure 1. It comprises a melting point resin plate 3 and a core layer 2, which is a laminate, sandwiched between the two low melting point resin plates 3 and joined to the respective low melting point resin plates 3. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the core layer 2 has a fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 as a first net-like member configured as described later with reference to FIG. 3 and a configuration as described later with reference to FIG. 4. And a coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 as a second net-like member. Coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 are arranged on the lowermost layer and the uppermost layer inside the core layer 2, respectively. In the core layer 2, two coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 adjacent to each other via the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 in the laminating direction are
It is fused through a plurality of holes 4a of the mesh-like fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 sandwiched between the adjacent coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5. Each of the plurality of holes 4a is a fine lattice hole of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4, but in order to securely join the two coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5, as described later, as an auxiliary hole separately from the lattice hole. When a through hole is provided in the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4, two coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 may be joined to each other through the through hole. The auxiliary through-hole is formed in the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 after the production of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4. All of the plurality of holes 4a may be such through holes.

Each of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 is a sheet-like cloth member.
Polyester having a melting point of 267 ° C. is used as a material of the non-woven fabric, and polyethylene having a melting point of 137 ° C. is used as a material of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5. Therefore, a high melting point first resin having a first melting point and a higher melting point than the material of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 is used as the material of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 5. A low-melting second resin having a second melting point lower than the melting point of the material No. 4 is used.

The low-melting-point resin plate 3 has a high affinity for the coarse-grain nonwoven fabric 5 in the fusion with the coarse-grain nonwoven fabric 5. The same polyethylene as the material is used.
The material of the low-melting-point resin plate 3 is not limited to polyester, but may be any material having high affinity with the material of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 by fusion with the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 and having a certain degree of rigidity. Such a thing may be used.

The material of the low-melting resin plate 3 is as follows.
As described above, it is preferable to use a nonwoven fabric having an affinity that can be bonded to at least the nonwoven fabric of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 or the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 by pressure bonding during melting. The effect of the present invention can be further exerted by using a material having an affinity that can be bonded to both the nonwoven fabrics of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 and the nonwoven fabric of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 by pressure bonding during melting using a known polymer blending technique.

FIG. 3 is an enlarged plan view showing a part of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.

As shown in FIG. 3, the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 is composed of nonwoven fabrics 6a and 6b. The nonwoven fabric 6a includes a plurality of first nonwoven fabrics each of which is arranged and stretched substantially in one direction.
The non-woven fabric 7a is formed of a plurality of second non-woven fabrics 7a each of which is arranged in substantially one direction and stretched.
Of the filament 7b. The nonwoven fabrics 6a and 7a are bonded together so that the arrangement direction of the first filaments and the arrangement direction of the second filaments 7b are substantially perpendicular to each other, whereby the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 is formed.

Each of the nonwoven fabrics 6a and 7a partially has a minute gap between the filaments. Therefore, the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 is a net-like structure having a plurality of fine holes 4a because the first filaments 6b and the second filaments 7b are superposed in a lattice shape.

The first filament 6b and the second filament 7b are long fiber filaments. The long fiber filament referred to here may be a long fiber substantially, that is, a filament having an average length exceeding 100 mm. If the diameters of the first filament 6b and the second filament 7b are 50 μm or more, they are rigid and insufficiently entangled. Preferably it is 30 μm or less, more preferably 25 μm or less. In particular, when a non-woven fabric having a high strength is intended, the filament diameter is desirably 5 μm or more. The diameter and length of the first filament 6b and the second filament 7b are measured by a micrograph.

When the lattice density of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 is extremely high, the lattice holes of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 must be Alternatively, a through-hole may be provided in the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 as an auxiliary hole.

FIG. 7 is a diagram for explaining an example in which a through hole is formed in the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4. FIG. 7 (a)
Is a plan view of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4, and FIG.
It is a top view of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 in which the through-hole was formed.

The shape of the through hole 8 is square, but may be any shape, and the arrangement of the through hole 8 may be any.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG.
Is a grid-like structure, that is, a mesh-like structure constituted by members wider than the diameters of the first filament 6b and the second filament 7b of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4, and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 has a fine lattice It is coarser than the lattice of the nonwoven fabric 4. Therefore, the mesh of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 is coarser than the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4, and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 has a plurality of holes larger than the holes 4 a of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4.

As shown in FIG. 2, an air layer is partially or entirely formed between the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5, and the first filament constituting the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 Air is also present in the gap between the second filament 6b and the second filament 7b and in the hole of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5, and the inside of the core layer 2 contains continuous air. Therefore,
The entire core layer 2 is an air-containing layer composed of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5. Thereby, the core layer 2 and the entire sandwich structure 1 are excellent in lightness, heat retention, heat insulation, and impact energy absorption characteristics.

FIG. 5 shows the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 shown in FIG.
FIG. 5 is a plan view showing a state in which the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 shown in FIG. FIG. 6 is a side view showing a state in which the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 are alternately stacked. In this side view, only seven layers are shown. The actual number of layers is arbitrarily set according to the required characteristics.

When the core layer 2 is manufactured, first, the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 are overlaid and laminated as shown in FIG. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 6, four coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 are arranged such that the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 is disposed on the lowermost layer and the uppermost layer in the laminating direction of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5, respectively. The three fine lattice nonwoven fabrics 4 are alternately overlapped with each other, and are laminated. Next, the laminate obtained by laminating the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 was pre-heated at 120 ° C. for 5 minutes, and then subjected to heat compression molding at 140 ° C. for 1 minute.
The coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 adjacent to each other via the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 in the laminating direction are fused together through the holes 4a of the mesh-like fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 sandwiched between the adjacent coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5, as shown in FIG. The core layer 2 is manufactured.

In the sandwich structure 1 of the present embodiment,
The coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 is arranged on the outermost side in the core layer 2, but is not the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 but the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4.
May be arranged outside. In the case where the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 is disposed outside as described above, as the material of the low melting point resin plate 3, the same material as the material of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4, such as polyester, is fused with the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4. A material having high affinity with the material may be used. Alternatively, when the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 is arranged on the outside, the same polyethylene as the material of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 is used as the material of the low melting point nonwoven resin plate 3, and the low melting point resin plate 3 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 are finely divided. The fusion may be performed through the holes 4 a of the lattice nonwoven fabric 4.

After the core layer 2 is manufactured, the lower and upper melting point resin plates 3 are brought into contact with the lower surface and the upper surface of the core layer 2 in the laminating direction of the core layer 2 respectively, and after preheating at 120 ° C. for 5 minutes, the temperature of 140 ° C. By heating and compression molding for 3 minutes, the respective coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 arranged on both sides of the core layer 2 are fused with the parent low-melting-point resin plate 3. Thereby, the low-melting-point resin plate 3 is provided on each of the upper and lower surfaces of the core layer 2.
Sandwich structure 1 shown in FIG.
Is produced.

In the sandwich structure 1 of the present embodiment,
As the material of the surface layer of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 and the material of the surface layer of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5, different thermoplastic resin compositions can be used. Further, the bonding between the coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 is preferably performed by heating and compressing the entire core layer 2. Therefore, when the thermoplastic resin, which is the main component of the surface layer of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4, is a crystalline resin, its crystal part melting temperature is _Tm1, and when it is an amorphous resin, its glass transition temperature is T _m1. nonwoven 5, when the crystal part melting temperature when a crystalline resin, or a glass transition temperature when a non-crystalline resin was T _{m @ 2,} the relationship between the temperature T _m1 and T _{m @ 2,}
The temperatures T _m1 and T _m2 are set so that “T _m1 −T _m2 ≧ 20 ° C.”. Joining of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 through the holes of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 becomes possible from the vicinity of the temperature T _m2 , and the difference between the temperatures T _m1 and T _m2 set in this manner causes the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 to be joined. Even when the two are joined through the holes of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4, the nonwoven fabric structure of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 can be maintained, and the presence of the air layer in the core layer 2 is ensured.

Note that these temperature relationships are opposite, that is, T
_In the case of _m1 < _Tm2 , avoid heating the entire core layer 2 and apply a point-like thermocompression bonding by passing between a roll having a heated point-like protrusion and a roll having a smooth surface. It is preferable to perform partial heating fusion such as thermal heating compression processing and ultrasonic fusion.

In the sandwich structure 1 described above, when the through holes 8 are formed in the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 through the holes 4a of the fine lattice nonwoven fabric 4 sandwiched between the two coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 in the core layer 2, Since the two coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 are joined to each other through the through holes 8, the interaction between the coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 in the core layer 2 is sufficiently obtained when an impact is applied to the sandwich structure 1. And the inside of the core layer 2 and the low-melting-point resin plate 3
The interaction with is also sufficiently obtained. Thereby, the elastic modulus of the entire sandwich structure 1 is increased, and the impact energy absorbing characteristics of the entire sandwich structure 1, particularly, the energy absorbing characteristics against surface impact are improved. As described above, since the continuous air is contained in the core layer 2, the sandwich structure 1 having excellent impact energy absorption characteristics in addition to lightness, heat retention, heat insulation, and the like is realized. Further, due to the above-described interaction caused by the coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 being joined to each other through the holes 4a of the fine lattice nonwoven fabrics 4, the impact energy absorption characteristics of the sandwich structure 1 when the collision object penetrates the sandwich structure 1 are also improved.

FIG. 21 shows the longitudinally stretched nonwoven fabric 14 shown in FIG.

FIG. 22 is a side view showing a state in which the vertically stretched nonwoven fabric 14 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 are alternately overlapped and laminated.

In order to produce the core layer 12, the longitudinally stretched nonwoven fabric 14 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 are superposed and laminated as shown in FIG. Next, apart from the longitudinally stretched nonwoven fabric 14 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 shown in FIG. 19, the vertically stretched nonwoven fabric 14 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 superposed in the same manner as in the state shown in FIG.

When the longitudinally stretched nonwoven fabric 14 is disposed on the outer side in this manner, as the material of the low-melting resin sheet 3, the same material as that of the vertically stretched nonwoven fabric 14, such as polyester, is used to fuse the longitudinally stretched nonwoven fabric 14. A material having high affinity with the material may be used. Alternatively, when the longitudinally stretched nonwoven fabric 14 is disposed on the outside, the same polyethylene as the material of the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 is used as the material of the parent low melting point resin plate 3, and the parent low melting point resin plate 3 and the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric 5 are vertically separated. The fusion may be performed through the holes 14a of the stretched nonwoven fabric 14.

After the core layer 12 is formed, the lower and upper melting point resin plates 3 are brought into contact with the lower surface and the upper surface of the core layer 12 in the laminating direction of the core layer 12 respectively, and after preheating at 120 ° C. for 5 minutes, the temperature of 140 ° C. By heating and compression molding for 3 minutes, the respective coarse lattice nonwoven fabrics 5 arranged on both sides of the core layer 12 are fused with the parent low-melting-point resin plate 3. As a result, the sandwich structure 11 shown in FIG. 16 in which the low-melting-point resin plate 3 is bonded to each of the upper surface and the lower surface of the core layer 12 is manufactured.

As described above, in each of the sandwich structures of the first and second embodiments, the coarse lattice nonwoven fabric is joined through the holes of the mesh member to form the core layer. The body can be used as a shock absorbing member. In particular, the sandwich structure according to the present invention is particularly effective against an impact penetrating the sandwich structure. Further, since the core layer contains continuous air, applications of the sandwich structure include various lightweight structural members, heat insulating materials, soundproofing materials, and shock absorbing members particularly effective for surface impact.

Further, the core layer of each sandwich structure functions as a reinforcing material against stress in the direction perpendicular to the core layer, that is, stress in the stacking direction of the core layer, but acts in the direction parallel to the core layer. Since it has anisotropy that it does not function as a reinforcing material against the stress of the above, a sandwich structure may be used as a vibration damping material such as a core material such as a tatami mat or bedding. Furthermore, since each member constituting the core layer can freely move with respect to the micro-vibration, a great effect can be obtained as a vibration damping material by using each sandwich structure as a vibration damping material.
