Abstract: Abstract Technologies for recycling carbon–fibre composites are now becoming mature, so a key challenge is to establish applications for the recycled products. This paper aims to further our understanding on the mechanical response of recycled composites, so as to guide the optimisation of recycling processes and support their use in non-critical structural components. This work thoroughly characterises three recycled composites and analyses the relations between fibre and interfacial properties, reinforcement architecture, and macroscopic me...
