Abstract
Industrial wastes of glass fiber reinforced polyamide 6 originating from in jection molding were reprocessed and characterized by measurements of relat ive viscosity, impact strength, fiber average length and fiber length distr ibution. The results show that the set of characterization techniques used are efficient to reproduce the behavior of reprocessed polymeric composites and to compare them with the virgin material.
