The Impact Criteria for Reusing Dismantled Material Using Laser Shock

The Impact Criteria for Reusing Dismantled Material Using Laser Shock

The lesson I introduces the Laser shock dismantling process as an alternative to the current recycling and reuse techniques, which do not always reply to the environmental regulations and quality standards for valorized materials. The optimization of process parameters, important for improving efficiency, is presented in Lesson II. This lesson focuses on analyzing the impact of laser shock on dismantled composite materials under maximum laser parameters. The properties of the dismantled samples are examined using various analyses to assess the effects of laser shock application in composite material dismantling, compared to the reference samples, which did not undergo laser shock treatment. Surface integrity is evaluated through ultrasound and microscopy, while chemical and thermal properties are analyzed using dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), respectively. Mechanical performance is assessed through three-point bending tests.
