“…To overcome these drawbacks, technologies have developed over the years like blending with fine textile fibers for diversification (Basu and Roy 2008), development of jute products with its inherent properties for suitable products like packing, composites (Bledzki and Gassan 1999), development of fine yarn from modified spinning (Miazi et al 2009). Other than the above technologies, the functional finishes in the following categories suitable to jute textiles are preferred (Banerjee et al 1985;Chattopadhyay et al 2010).…”

Over the years, technologies had used for development of various textile products to meet the consumer demands in different fields as per their end-use specifications. The market sustainability of the each new product mainly depends on the raw material as well as functionality. A functional finishing decides the end-use of the products as well as enhances the life of the products. Jute is one of the important natural cellulosic fibers and mainly used for sacking and packaging, rather than it has many advantageous properties. Similar to cotton, jute fiber has the potential to impart different functionality by different chemical finishing for its diversification. This paper reviews the functional finishing on jute textiles with special reference to softening, crease resistant, fire retardant, and hygiene for the satisfaction of the consumer's demand are reviewed.

“…In fact, jute is the second most important natural fiber in terms of global consumption after cotton [1]. Although there are more than 40 species of jute available, only two species are cultivated commercially, namely, Corchorus capsularis L. (commonly known as white jute) and C. olitorius L. (commonly known as Tossa/traditional jute).…”

“…Jute is also versatile, durable, reusable, cheap, and superior to synthetic fibers. Other major advantages of jute is that it is agro-based, produced annually, renewable, and biodegradable [1]. Jute is regarded as the best natural substitute for nylon and polypropylene.…”

Abstract:The study assesses the future potential of the jute sector in Bangladesh by examining its growth performance, international competitiveness, profitability, and production efficiency using national time-series data of over the period 1973-2013 and farm survey data from 289 farmers from two major jute growing areas of Bangladesh. Results revealed that the jute sector has experienced substantial growth in area, production, productivity, prices, and exports. However, productivity has stagnated during the latter 10-year period (2004)(2005)(2006)(2007)(2008)(2009)(2010)(2011)(2012)(2013), while it grew at a rate of 1.3% per annum (p.a.) during the first 31-year period . Only traditional jute production is globally competitive, although financial profitability of white jute is relatively higher (benefit cost ratio = 1.24 and 1.17, respectively). Land, labor, and irrigation are the main productivity drivers for jute. The mean production efficiency of jute is estimated at 75% indicating substantial scope to improve yield by eliminating inefficiency. Marginal farmers are relatively inefficient. Policy implications include investments in research and development, irrigation, and tenurial reform and export protection for white jute in order to revive the sector and boost export earnings.

“…Although the majority of nonwoven materials are produced from man-made fibres, the trend towards more environment-friendly products incorporating recyclability and biodegradability means that jute and other plant fibres can be more widely used. Jute is the second most important natural fibre consumed globally [11]. Jute nonwovens offer good sound absorption (Thilagavathi et al, 2010) [12].…”

<div><p><em>In this paper jute fibre was modified with three different chemical modification techniques namely acetylation using acetic anhydride, grafting using butyl acrylate monomer and fatty acid modification using oleic acid to increase the oil sorption capacity of the fibre. All the above modifications were carried out in fibrous as well as nonwoven form to study the effect of substrate geometry on oil sorption capacity. It was found that oil sorption capacity of the chemically modified jute fibres was higher than that of the raw fibres and in case of the chemically modified nonwoven it was much higher than the raw as well as modified loose fibres. Reusability of the modified substrates was also tested and it was found that all the substrates could be squeezed to recover oil and reused at least three times. </em><em>Nonwoven fabric’s substrate geometry permits easy rolling-in and rolling-out of the fabric for the recovery of the oil from the surface of the water. </em><em>Also these oil sorption-active materials being biodegradable can be used to substitute non-biodegradable synthetic materials in oil spill cleanup.</em></p></div>
