Abstract

The invention relates to a recovery method of carbon-fiber reinforced epoxy composites. A method in the prior art has defects of strict reaction requirements and high recovery cost. The method provided in the invention comprises the steps of: cutting composites needing to be decomposed into blocks with volumes smaller than 5 cubic centimeters, placing the blocks in a reflux device filled with acid solution, heating for 5-30 minutes at a boiling temperature, drying in vacuum after washing the composites, placing the dried composites in a sealed reactor, adding materials containing hydroxyl and oxidizing agent into the sealed reactor, heating, then cooling the material to normal temperature to obtain primary products, placing and dipping solid products of the primary products in industrial acetone solution after washing the solid products, recycling to obtain carbon fiber, and carrying out liquid separation, extraction and distillation for liquid products to obtain phenol and phenol derivatives. According to the invention, the recovery is carried out under low temperature and low pressure; the reaction condition is mild; the recovery can be controlled easily; the recovery has few by-products, almost no pollution, and no equipment corrosion. The recovery method is a green recovery way.
