1. Working with Recycled carbon fiber to make carbon fiber non-wovens using dry laid technique to achieve a high degree of anisotropy (unidirectional)
2. Once, rCF(recycled carbon fiber) is processed into non-woven mats, it is then compression molded into flat composite panels.
3. The compression molded rCF composite panel is then characterized using various ASTM standards such as (Tensile, flexural, ILSS, IZOD, SEM, Optical microscopy, X-ray CT, etc.)
