PROCESS OF RECYCLING A FIBER-REINFORCED POLYMERIC MATERIAL AND RELATED APPARATUS

摘要

The present invention is related to a process of recycling fiber-reinforced polymeric material including the following steps: a) crushing the material so as to reduce it into fragments; b) mixing the material obtained in the previous step with a liquid adhesive; c) pouring the mixture obtained in step b) into a mold; d) applying a pressure. In particular, the mixing step b) is carried out by nebulizing some adhesive and simultaneously stirring the particles of the fiber-reinforced polymeric material so that a thin layer of adhesive will deposit on the surface of basically each particle of the fiber-reinforced polymeric material. Furthermore, the present invention relates to an apparatus for carrying out the process.
