Vinyl Ester Resins

This work is focused on the mechanical characterization and fracture surfaces analysis of thermosetting polymers reinforced with short, randomly oriented, recycled carbon fibres (rCFs). This work aims at evaluating fibre/matrix adhesion between recycled CFs - reclaimed via pyrolysis followed by controlled oxidation of the pyrolytic char - and different polymer matrices, namely epoxy and vinyl ester resins. The latter is the main focus in this work, being amongst the most widely used thermosetting resins in SMC processes, which are the typical target for short rCFs. The evaluation of the properties of this new recycled carbon fibre reinforced polymer (rCFRP) has been via thermogravimetric analysis, dynamic mechanical analysis, stress/strain tests in tensile mode, and a subsequent analysis of the fracture surfaces by means of images analysis obtained by macrophotography, Optical Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy. The comparison amongst the results allowed to evaluate the influence of the polymer nature and of the adhesion quality between fibres and polymeric matrix, mainly on the mechanical properties of the rCFRPs.
