A fiber-reinforced polymeric resin composite material useful for producing a shaped composite article having a high thermal stability and mechanical strength, and a low creep strain, comprises a thermoplastic polymeric resin matrix and a number of reinforcing individual fibers embedded within the polymeric resin matrix in such a manner that 10% to 70% by the number of the individual fibers are separated from each other through portions of the polymeric resin matrix and the remaining individual fibers form at least one fiber bundle. |
