RecOMBinEUR

  • Composite

Sustainable development in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine Region: Compositadour takes part in the RecOMBinEUR project!

(Revalorisation of cOMposites to improve performance, integrity, use and reuse)

 

 

RecOMBinEUR is a project funded by the Conseil régional de Nouvelle-Aquitaine as part of the AAP INTER-CT, bringing together 7 players from New Aquitaine: AXYAL, APESA, COMPOSITADOUR, Precimicron, RESCOLL Industries, SOMOCAP, and CANOE - Le Centre Technologique Nouvelle Aquitaine Composites & Matériaux Avancés (project coordinator). Its aim is to develop a value chain in the New Aquitaine region around the recycling and recovery of high-performance thermoplastic matrix composites reinforced with carbon fiber.

 

What are our tasks on this project?

 

  • Identify and define the sources of materials from offcuts and scraps from the production of "long-fibre" thermoplastic composite parts.
  • Define and validate the methodology for implementing shredding to obtain a coarse shred from production scraps and rejects or composite parts at the end of their life.
  • Using thermocompression and thermoforming to process these shreds to create characterisation parts and demonstrators.
