AI Technical Summary
Existing chemical recycling technologies are unable to efficiently and cost-effectively remove the adhesive residue from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fiber waste, resulting in a decline in fiber recycling performance, and traditional solvents may cause environmental pollution.
Using biodegradable ionic liquids and organic bases as solvents and catalysts, the adhesive on the fiber surface is penetrated, swollen and peeled off through the synergistic effect of the compounded ionic liquids and organic bases, and ultrasonic cleaning is combined to achieve efficient adhesive removal.
It achieves efficient degumming under mild conditions, with fiber gluing content below 2wt%, making it green and environmentally friendly. It reduces the risk of fiber performance damage and environmental pollution, and promotes the high-value recycling of fibers.
