Dynamic Thermogravimetric Analysis of Recycled Carbon Fiber Composites: Mini Review
Journal Title: Global Journal of Engineering Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
Thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) is one of the most popular analysis techniques to study the decomposition process of polymeric materials in controlled atmospheres at various temperatures. In this review, dynamic TGA was carried out to determine the thermal stability of the recycled epoxy-based and vinyl ester-based carbon fiber composite (CFC). The specimens were heated from ambient to 800°C under nitrogen and air at different heating rates. Results indicates that different heating rates has no significant influence on the degradation of the epoxy-based CFC.
