Waste printed circuit board (WPCB) from waste electrical and electronic equipment (e-waste) can be recycled a precious metal part while a non-metal part was burned or landfilled, which normally generated toxic substance of organic component to environment. The research work aimed to recycle epoxy resin by hot solvent chemical extraction. Polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG400) and ethylene glycol (EG), at 180°C, were mainly using as solvent and sodium hydroxide (NaOH) as a catalyst. Extraction method was reflux technique. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Specific viscosity, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) methods were investigated and discussed. The TGA result showed that the organic composition was 40.73%wt. The maximum of percent yield was 97.89% at non-metal WPCB/PEG, equal to 0.05 g/ml. Moreover, the extracted product presented a functional group close to virgin epoxy resin according to the peak of FT-IR data. The recycled epoxy resin could be formed well on specimen by virgin epoxy resin and hardener filled with 50% recycled extraction product.

This research was aimed to study and develop a method for recycle epoxy resin from waste printed circuit board by hot solvent methods and DMSO/NaOH catalytic extraction method. It was found that the pressure tank system, sub set of hot solvent method, variable as following; pressure of 15 bar, temperature of 80 °C, reaction time for 6 h and ethyl acetate solvent presented maximum yield 50.46 %, while DMSO/NaOH catalytic system at 145 °C for 5 h was found maximum yield of 42.97 %. Recycled epoxy resin, the final product from hot solvent and DMSO/NaOH catalytic were showed similarly clear orange-yellow high viscosity. Comparatively, DMSO/NaOH system showed slightly darker color than that of hot solvent system. Functional group at 3000-2850, 1480-1540 and 1020-1040 cm-1, characterized from Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), indicated that the both product were alkane, aromatic, and phenyl-O-C group, respectively. It could be confirmed that the beneficial functional group of recycled epoxy resin was appeared as a new epoxy resin.
