20100267868 | METHOD OF RECYCLING FIBER-REINFORCED PLASTIC - The present invention provides a method of recycling a fiber-reinforced plastic by which a recycled material of a fiber-reinforced plastic having excellent strength properties can be obtained. The method is a method of recycling a fiber-reinforced plastic comprising carbon fibers and a thermosetting resin (epoxy resin), comprising a first step of producing a harmless material by subjecting a fiber-reinforced plastic B to heat treatment so as to burn off an epoxy resin and a second step of applying a sizing agent to or spraying a sizing agent over the harmless material, producing a strip-shaped harmless material B′, and producing a recycled material containing short carbon fibers during kneading of the strip-shaped harmless material B′ and a thermoplastic resin (polypropylene). | 10-21-2010 |
