Abstract

Natural fiber composite is the novel materials in recent decades having a high strength to weight ratio and light in weight are widely used for structural and unstructured applications. Jute fiber is one of the most common biodegradable natural fibers which successfully replaced the synthetic fibers composite and also replaced glass fiber where the high strength is not obliged. Jute fiber composite has several attractive advantages over synthetic and glass fiber like as low processing cost, low density, stiffness easily available, excellent mechanical properties and low production energy required (2% of glass fiber). This advantage makes the jute a very attractive reinforced fiber for composites. This paper presented an overview on different fabrication techniques and the effects of the various factors on the mechanical properties of the jute fiber reinforced composite.
