Experimental and hydrodynamic methods to determine aqueous dispersion of discontinuous reclaimed carbon fibres

In this study, the dispersion of reclaimed carbon fibres following cost-effective surface treatment is explored with a hydrodynamic fibre moving model, and practical effect investigated through various physical methods. To utilise for desired composite product, our proposed low-cost shown to be beneficial chemical properties yield polar-hydrophilic characteristics. Single tensile testing performed explore on (a higher strength was observed). A computational model based particle semi-implicit method newly designed perform simulation determine aqueous discontinuous fibres. This helps understanding flocculation phenomena from perspective stiffness, which should not disregarded dispersion. Fibre analyses including morphology functional groups are carried out investigate treatment. The methods approach can widely applicable any type produce recycled reinforced polymer materials.
