Melting glass fibres recovered from wind turbine blades into new glass fibres for wind turbine blades: Dataset

Melting glass fibres recovered from wind turbine blades into new glass fibres for wind turbine blades: Dataset.

In the study titled “Melting glass fibres recovered from wind turbine blades into new glass fibres for wind turbine blades”, four different types of glass fibres were manufactured with varying fractions of recycled fibre powder, 0 wt%, 1.64 wt%, 1.90 wt% or 1.96 wt%. Furthermore, these glass fibre types were used to manufacture composite specimens and characterised by static tension tests in fibre and transverse directions.

This dataset is a collection of 13 Excel files.

The “Glass fibre properties and Weibull analysis” Excel file summarise the single fibre tensile testing of glass fibre types and strength analysis using unimodal 2-parameter Weibull theory. There are four sheets in the Excel files for 0 wt%, 1.64 wt%, 1.90 wt% or 1.96 wt% glass fibres.

The Excel files “Single glass fibres-Stress-strain curves-0 %, 1.64 %, 1.90 %, 1.96 %” contains the raw data of individual fibres obtained from the single fibre tensile testing experiments.

There are eight Excel files containing the raw data of static tensile tests in the fibre and transverse direction of the composites made with glass fibres were manufactured with varying fractions of recycled fibre powder, 0 wt%, 1.64 wt%, 1.90 wt% or 1.96 wt%.
