|---|
| Abstract. A very wide employment of polymeric materials and composites based on them, both in everyday life and in other branches of the economy, and in particular in the shipbuilding industry, resulted in 304.000 jobs in 2015. tonnes of waste from fibre-reinforced composites. Therefore, it was necessary to look for new solutions to the problems of managing post-production waste and used products. New technologies for the management of post-consumer materials are to allow obtaining a cheap material that will show good functional properties, and its production will not be harmful to the natural environment. Therefore, it is important to design a technology that will allow the shipbuilding industry to follow the "zero waste" trend. |
