Abstract

A crashworthiness energy absorption part includes: a tubular member having tensile strength of 590 to 1180 MPa grade; a closed cross section space forming wall part having tensile strength lower than the tubular member and having both edge portions joined to inner surfaces of a pair of side wall portions of the tubular member, and forming a closed cross section space between the closed cross section space forming wall part and a part of a peripheral wall portion of the tubular member; and a resin configured to fill the closed cross section space, includes a rubber-modified epoxy resin and a curing agent, and has tensile breaking elongation of 80% or more, adhesive strength to the tubular member and closed cross section space forming wall part of 12 MPa or higher, and a compression nominal stress of 6 MPa or higher at a compression nominal strain of 10%.
