Abstract
Jute fabric (hessian cloth) reinforced low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) composites (40 wt%) and solid natural rubber-(NR) based composites (40 wt%) were fabricated by compression molding. Tensile strength (TS), tensile modulus (TM) and percentage elongation at break (Eb) of jute/LLDPE composites were found to be 29, 680 MPa and 20%, and for jute/NR-based composites were also found to be 15, 122 MPa and 94%, respectively. Interfacial shear strength (IFSS) of the jute/LLDPE and jute/NR systems was investigated by using the single fiber fragmentation test (SFFT). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and aqueous degradation tests were also performed.
