Circular Performance of Thermoplastic Composites
Explore new ways towards circular economy for high-performance composites. The objective of this work is to investigate the processing methods for recycled carbon fiber (rCF) tapes and to assess their potential for sustainable high-performance applications. Developing a technology demonstrator, the study aims to demonstrate how rCF tapes can be efficiently processed and to identify challenges as well as optimization opportunities.
Your tasks
- Research & Material Characterization: Analysis of the state of the art for rCF tapes, comparison of processing technologies, selection of suitable materials, and definition of key process parameters.
- Demonstrator Development & Evaluation: Implementation of defined processes for manufacturing a demonstrator, assessing component quality, and comparing results with existing material solutions.
- Optimization & Documentation: Identification of optimization potential, economic and ecological evaluation, documentation of findings, and presentation of recommendations for future use of rCF tapes.
