abstract = "This paper shows a developed process to reclaim carbon fiber from
end-of-life thermoset composite or pre-preg process waste, which
uses pyrolysis and oxidation to remove the matrix (resin) and a
plasma reactor to treat the exhaust gases. Laminates were
manufactured to be recycled and the reclaimed laminates were
remanufactured and then tested. Tensile tests, interlaminar shear
strength tests and measurement of the fiber volumetric fraction
for both virgin and reclaimed laminates were carried out. The
dimensions, masses and permeability were also measured for both
virgin and recycled laminates. Additionally, ultrasound
inspections, Raman spectroscopy, micrographs using scanning and
transmission, as well as microscopy of the fracture surfaces of
the composite specimens submitted to the tensile and interlaminar
shear strength tests were performed. Monofilament tensile tests in
one of the reclaimed and virgin samples were also conducted. All
these tests and analysis were conducted aiming at comparing the
overall performance of the reference (virgin) composite to the one
manufactured with reclaimed carbon fiber, trying to better
understand the differences between them, and the origin and cause
of these differences.",
