“…The thickness of the specimen was 0.40 mm. The single-fiber composite specimens (25 Â 5 Â 0.40 mm 3 ) were loaded on the tensile machine (Hounsfield series S testing machine, UK) to bring out the repeated breakage of the fiber. A cross-head speed of 0.25 mm/min was used.…”

Jute and bamboo fiber-reinforced polypropylene (PP) based composites (50 wt% fiber) were fabricated by compression molding. Tensile strength (TS), bending strength (BS), tensile modulus (TM), and bending modulus (BM) of the jutereinforced PP composite were found to be 48, 56, 900, and 1500 MPa, respectively. Then, bamboo fiber-reinforced PP-based composites (50 wt% fiber) were fabricated and the mechanical properties evaluated. The TS, BS, TM, and BM of bambooreinforced PP composites were found to be 60, 76, 4210, and 6210 MPa, respectively. It was revealed that bamboo fiber-based composites had higher TS, BS, TM, and BM compared to jute-based composites. Degradation tests of the composites (jute fiber/PP and bamboo fiber/PP) were performed in soil at ambient conditions for up to 24 weeks. It was revealed that bamboo fiber/PP composite retained its original mechanical properties higher than that of jute fiber/PP composite. The interfacial shear strength of the jute and bamboo fiber-based composites was investigated using the single-fiber fragmentation test and it was found to be 2.14 and 4.91 MPa, respectively. Fracture sides of the composites were studied by scanning electron microscope, and the results revealed poor fiber matrix adhesion for jute fiber-based composites compared to that of the bamboo fiber-based composites.

“…The biodegradable and low-priced jute products merge with the soil after providing nourishment to the soil. Being made of cellulose, on combustion, jute does not generate toxic gases [3,4]. There are several reports about the use of jute as reinforcing fibers for thermo-sets and thermoplastics.…”

“…Among all the natural fibers, jute was chosen for study because it is now a fiber crop grown commercially in Bangladesh and Eastern India. Jute is one of the natural agro-fibers (lignocellulosic fiber) that have attracted world-wide attention as a potential reinforcement of polymer composites because of their inborn properties, such as low cost and low density; acceptable specific properties such as enhanced energy recovery, CO 2 neutrality, biodegradability, and recyclable nature are comparable to those of synthetic fiber [1][2][3][4]. Jute (tossa) fiber is extracted from the base of the plant Corchorus Olitorious of the family Tiliaceae.…”

“…Jute is a complex polymeric substance, and is composed chiefly of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. In addition, it contains minor constituents such as fats and waxes, inorganic nitrogenous matters, and traces of pigments like b-carotene and xanthophylls [2,3]. Lignin is a phenolic component generally resistant to microbial degradation.…”

Jute fabrics=polypropylene composites were prepared by compression molding. Jute fabrics were treated with red dye solutions (0.1-1%, w=w) for different soaking times and we found that 0.5% red-dye-treated jute=PP composite for 5 min soaking time showed better results. Gamma radiation (250-1000 krad dose) was applied on both jute and matrices. Composites were fabricated with non-irradiated jute=non-irradiated PP (C-0), non-irradiated jute=irradiated PP (C-1), irradiated jute=non-irradiated PP (C-2), and irradiated jute=irradiated PP (C-3). It was found that a C-3 composite made using 500 krad dose showed the best results. Simulating weathering and dielectric properties of the composites were also performed.

“…It could be the best choice for the above-mentioned purpose. In some of the earlier works, jute=plastic composites have been successfully prepared by different methods [16,17]. Jute is an agricultural fiber grown mainly in South Asia.…”

Jute fabrics such as reinforced polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polypropylene (PP), and a mixture of PVC and PP matrices-based composites (50 wt% fiber) were prepared by compression molding. Tensile strength (TS), bending strength (BS), tensile modulus (TM), and vbending modulus (BM) of jute fabrics' reinforced PVC composite (50 wt% fiber) were found to be 45 MPa, 52 MPa, 0.8 GPa, and 1.1 GPa, respectively. The effect of incorporation of PP on the mechanical properties of jute fabrics' reinforced PVC composites was studied. It was found that the mixture of 60% PP and 40% PVC matrices based composite showed the best performance. TS, BS, TM, and BM for this composite were found to be 65 MPa, 70 MPa, 1.42 GPa, and 1.8 GPa, respectively. Degradation tests of the composites for up to six months were performed in a soil medium. Thermo-mechanical properties of the composites were also studied.
