Long Carbon Fiber

In recent years, due to the growing demand for lightweight in various industries around the world (automotive, aerospace, military, building and civil engineering, etc.), and the increasingly strict requirements for the use of environmentally friendly and sustainable materials, the use of fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites in various industries has been increasing. Especially for carbon fiber reinforced composites, there is still a high recycling value after the products are discarded after completing their life cycle, and through effective recycling technology and methods, the cost of carbon fiber reinforced composites can be significantly reduced.

The recovery method of fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites is closely related to the shape and forming method of fiber reinforced in resin. Take carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites as an example. The reinforced forms of carbon fiber mainly include short fiber reinforced, long fiber reinforced and continuous fiber reinforced, and the main preparation method is melt forming. For thermoplastic resins with high melting point, such as polyetherimide (PEI) and polyetherether ketone (PEEK), solvent forming can be adopted.

Due to the linear molecular structure of thermoplastic resin, it is easy to transform from solid state to liquid state at high temperature. Therefore, thermoplastic composite materials can be recycled by remelting and reshaping method, which is more recyclable than thermosetting resin matrix composite materials.

Application

Our materails all can be recycled

At present, more and more companies are developing recycling methods for fiber reinforced thermoplastic composites. For example, the 2014 Chevrolet Corvette uses composite materials containing recycled carbon fiber in 21 body panel components, including doors, boot LIDS, side coops and fenders. Ford Motor Company has used recycled long carbon fiber and polypropylene (LCF/PP) composites to replace the original ASA engineering plastic as the rigid part of the A-pillar bracket in its 2018 Explorer sport utility SUV.
