“…They stated that the developed composites could be used in automotive interior parts, furniture, interior construction, sports, and leisure equipment. Khurshid et al [ 24 ] reported processing techniques to recycle waste carbon fiber for thermoset composite production. The waste carbon fiber generated during yarn and fabric manufacturing can be easily converted into wet‐laid and dry‐laid nonwovens.…”

This research reports thermoset composites reinforced with cotton and polyester fibers (recovered from pre‐consumer textile waste). The carded web of cotton and polyester fibers and epoxy resin were used to develop the composites using the compression molding technique. The polyester/epoxy composites show average tensile and impact strength higher than cotton/epoxy composites. However, cotton/epoxy composites show average flexural strength higher than polyester/epoxy composites. The bearing strength in a pinned joint for polyester/epoxy composites is higher than cotton/epoxy composites. The equilibrium water content of polyester/epoxy composites was found much less than the corresponding cotton/epoxy composite. The cotton/epoxy and polyester/epoxy composites are thermally stable enough.

“…CFRTP will achieve a wide potential if both polymer and CF manufacturers [146] continue to observe new applications and develop creative and low-cost technologies. The major CFRTP consumption sectors include the aerospace, defense, automotive, renewable energies, sports equipment, and construction industries [147]. For instance, aircraft makers have also been focusing on reducing the overall weight of aircraft so as to increase the efficiency of the product.…”

Carbon fiber-reinforced polymers are considered a promising composite for many industrial applications including in the automation, renewable energy, and aerospace industries. They exhibit exceptional properties such as a high strength-to-weight ratio and high wear resistance and stiffness, which give them an advantage over other conventional materials such as metals. Various polymers can be used as matrices such as thermosetting, thermoplastic, and elastomers polymers. This comprehensive review focuses on carbon fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polymers due to the advantages of thermoplastic compared to thermosetting and elastomer polymers. These advantages include recyclability, ease of processability, flexibility, and shorter production time. The related properties such as strength, modulus, thermal conductivity, and stability, as well as electrical conductivity, are discussed in depth. Additionally, the modification techniques of the surface of carbon fiber, including the chemical and physical methods, are thoroughly explored. Overall, this review represents and summarizes the future prospective and research developments carried out on carbon fiber-reinforced thermoplastic polymers.

“…This review article seeks to explain the state of the art in recycled carbon fiber textile manufacturing and subsequent processing into high-value automotive grade composites. Unlike other recent reviews that focus primarily on composites made of recycled fibers processed using yarn spinning [7] and fibers recycled using only pyrolysis [8], this review is indifferent towards any specific textile manufacturing and fiber recycling processes. First, recycling concepts, methods, and the expected properties are introduced.…”

Carbon fiber recycling has garnered significant attention in recent years due to the large volume of manufacturing waste and upcoming end-of-life products that will enter the waste stream as the current generation of aircraft is retired from service. Recycled carbon fibers have been shown to retain most of their virgin mechanical properties, but their length is generally reduced such that continuous fiber laminates cannot be remade. As such, these fibers are typically used in low-performance applications including injection molding, extrusion/compression molding, and 3D printing that further degrade the fiber length and resulting composite properties. However, recent advances in the processing of long discontinuous fiber textiles have led to medium- to high-performance composites using recycled carbon fibers. This review paper describes the recent advances in recycled carbon fiber textile processing that have made these improvements possible. The techniques used to manufacture high-value polymer composites reinforced with discontinuous recycled carbon fiber are described. The resulting mechanical and multifunctional properties are also discussed to illustrate the advantages of these new textile-based recycled fiber composites over the prior art.
