Description

Method for lossless closed-loop recovery of carbon fibers in composite material
[ technical field ] A method for producing a semiconductor device
The invention relates to the technical field of carbon fiber recovery, in particular to the technical field of a method for recovering carbon fibers in a composite material in a lossless closed loop mode.
[ background of the invention ]
Carbon fiber reinforced high-performance thermosetting epoxy resin-based composite materials (CFRC) are increasingly applied to the large-scale transportation field of airplanes, automobiles, high-speed trains, ships and the like due to the advantages of high strength-to-weight ratio, high rigidity-to-weight ratio, good fatigue resistance and the like. However, the good mechanical, thermal and chemical properties of CFRC's own three-dimensional, permanently crosslinked network structure, in turn, make it difficult to recover carbon fibers therefrom.
In order to avoid waste of carbon fibers, at present, methods for recovering carbon fibers from CFRC waste mainly include a mechanical pulverization method, a chemical solvent method, a thermal cracking method, a supercritical method, and the like. These methods, while each having advantages, have disadvantages. The mechanical crushing method can only obtain the mixed scraps of the high polymer and the carbon fiber finally, and the recycling added value is extremely low. Both the thermal cracking process and the supercritical process require the use of special pressure-resistant or high-temperature-resistant devices, resulting in a significant increase in the recovery cost of the carbon fibers. The chemical solvent method may obtain a waste liquid of organic solvent or nitric acid in which polymers are dissolved after the treatment, and the treatment of the waste liquid increases the recycling cost and causes secondary pollution if the waste liquid is not properly treated. Therefore, how to recover carbon fibers from CFRC waste in a useful and non-destructive manner is a problem to be solved.
[ summary of the invention ]
The invention aims to solve the problems in the prior art and provides a lossless closed-loop method for recovering carbon fibers in a composite material, which can recover the carbon fibers from CFRC waste in a useful and lossless manner.
