Description:
<jats:p>Recycled T800S carbon fibre from a polymer composite using a pyrolysis process was compared with virgin T800S fibre and the contact angle and interfacial shear strength with epoxy and vinyl ester resins were measured. The contact angles were measured using drop length-height method, and the interfacial shear strengths were measured using micro-bond method. For the same type of resin, the recycled T800S carbon fibre had a greater contact angle and lower interfacial shear strength than those of the virgin fibre.</jats:p>
