Characterisation of carbon fibres recycled from carbon fibre/epoxy resin composites using supercritical n-propanol

Three different PAN based carbon fibres (Toray T600S, T700S and Tenax STS5631) were recycled from epoxy resin/carbon fibre composites using supercritical n-propanol. The recycled carbon fibres were characterised using single fibre tensile tests, SEM, XPS and micro-droplet test. The tensile strength...

Zusammenfassung:Three different PAN based carbon fibres (Toray T600S, T700S and Tenax STS5631) were recycled from epoxy resin/carbon fibre composites using supercritical n-propanol. The recycled carbon fibres were characterised using single fibre tensile tests, SEM, XPS and micro-droplet test. The tensile strength and modulus of the recycled carbon fibre was very similar to the corresponding as-received carbon fibres. However, the surface oxygen concentration decreased significantly, which caused a reduction of the interfacial shear strength with epoxy resin.
