This research uses a novel approach for reusing post-consumer polyethylene terephthalate (PET) by developing recycled composites from post-consumer PET carpet (cPET) and recycled PET (rPET) resin sourced from bottle discards via compression molding. Incorporating whole carpets in the process significantly reduces preprocessing costs and time. A design of experiments approach was employed with variables such as temperature, pressure, dwell time, and composition to optimize mechanical properties. A two-level fractional factorial design for screening followed by a three-level full factorial design was performed to identify suitable processing parameters to achieve better mechanical properties. The optimal molding processing conditions for rPET/cPET (30/70) composites were identified as 270 °C for 250 s under 1 MPa, which yielded a flexural strength of 54.6 ± 6.0 MPa and a flexural modulus of 3180 ± 110 MPa, as verified through reproducibility testing on 10 samples (2 samples each from 5 molding experiments). These enhanced mechanical properties showcase the potential of rPET/cPET composites for structural applications. The composites made up of 30 % recycled PET resin and 70 % post-consumer PET carpet show that a larger fraction of carpet offers a sustainable alternative approach to reduce landfill waste from carpets and develop environmentally friendly materials with good structural integrity.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":10660,"journal":{"name":"Composites Part B: Engineering","volume":"298 ","pages":"Article 112367"},"PeriodicalIF":12.7,"publicationDate":"2025-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143601139","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
