Abstract

ABSTRACTThe research work aims at investigating the fitness of jute and hollow conjugated polyester (HCP) composites for indoor and outdoor applications. Limiting oxygen value index, natural weathering exposure was done on four optimized composite structures; i) sandwich structure composite (A); ii) blended non-woven structure composite (B); iii) multiple layers with 5% of low melt polyester added composite (C); (iv) multiple layers of non-woven stitched composite (D) were produced. Their tensile strength, strain at break, and Young’s modulus values were evaluated both before and after the coating of acrylic-based silicon emulsion (ASE). From the experimental results, it is suggested that sample A can be used for an interior trim, sample B can be a base material for interior designing, sample C can replace the usage of wood, plastics, metals, and alloys in hardware applicationsand sample D can be used in interiors as an insulation material in commercial buildings for the purpose of internal cooling or heating.
