Having a solid understanding of materials recycling is of high importance, especially due to the growing use of composites in many industries and increasingly strict legislation and concerns about the disposal of composites in landfills or by incineration. Recycling of Plastics, Metals, and Their Composites provides a comprehensive review of the recycling of waste polymers and metal composites. It provides the latest advances and covers the fundamentals of recycled polymers and metal composites, such as preparation, morphology, and physical, mechanical, thermal, and flame-retardancy properties.FEATURES Offers a state-of-the-art review of the recycling of polymer composites and metal composites for sustainability Describes a life-cycle analysis to help readers understand the true potential value and market for these recycled materials Details potential applications of recycled polymer and metal composites Includes the performance of natural fiber–reinforced recycled thermoplastic polymer composites under aging conditions and the recycling of multi-material plastics Covers recycling technologies, opportunities, and challenges for polymer-matrix compositesThis book targets technical professionals in the metal and polymer industries as well as researchers, scientists, and advanced students. It is also of interest to decision makers at material suppliers, recycled metal and polymer product manufacturers, and governmental agencies working with recycled metal and polymer composites.

Recycling and Reuse of Composite Materials presents the latest developments in this important research field. The book begins with a brief introductory section explaining the fundamentals of composite recycling including sorting and separation techniques for waste composites. Thermal, mechanical and chemical recycling processes are then discussed in detail as well as information on the additives used in recycled composites. The middle section of the book then discusses the various types of recycled composites that are currently commercially available and their related technology. These include thermoplastic, thermoset-matrix waste, metal-waste and rubber-polymer based composites. The utilization of lignocellulosic waste is also discussed in detail.The chapters address the challenges and solutions in recycling these complex structures for a board range of different applications. With its focus on idea generation and informed decision-making, the book will serve as a valuable reference resource for individuals engaged in research, design, and engineering across both public and private sectors, fostering a vision for sustainable product development.Focuses on the fundamentals, processing, and characterization of recycled composites and discusses their properties and performanceCovers conceptual design solutions, materials selection, fabrication techniques, structural analysis, and circular product developmentDiscusses the challenges and solutions in recycling complex composite structuresAddresses global challenges, economic aspects, environmental considerations, and lifecycle analysis of recycled composite materialsContains case studies on the processing and properties of recycled composites and reuse of composite materialsCovers automotive, construction, packaging, and consumer sectors
