Abstract
The aim of this study was to find a feasible technique for the re-use of phenolic prepreg waste as a functional filler in PP and nylon-6, using standard processing equipment. In particular, the study aims to evaluate the possibility of re-using milled prepreg as filler in nylon-6, which has not been reported in the literature, it is claimed. The compatibility between phenolic prepreg and nylon-6 or PP was investigated using scanning electron microscopy of fractured surfaces. The effects of surface treatment using gamma-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, and compatibilisation using maleic anhydride functionalised PP on the composite’s mechanical properties were investigated. 30 refs.
