Recycling High-performance Carbon — Fiber Reinfor...

Modern recycling methods are categorized based on their approach to breaking down the polymer matrix:

Recycling high-performance carbon fiber reinforced polymers (CFRP) is a critical focus for achieving a circular economy, as roughly of carbon fiber used in manufacturing becomes waste . While historically most of this waste ended up in landfills, current technologies now allow for the recovery of carbon fibers that retain over 90% to 99% of their original mechanical properties.
