Experimental Studies on Tensile Properties of Jute Fibre Reinforced Polymer Composites

Abstract

As reinforcement material, jute fibre is used to develop reinforced plastics for the purpose of various engineering applications. Just because of its acceptable mechanical properties, low cost and biodegradability, it is chosen as reinforcement material. The mechanical properties of polymeric matrix composites based on jute fibrereinforced polymer composites have played a dominant role for a long time, in a variety of applications for their high specific strength and modulus. In the present work, mechanical properties of the composites, such as Tensile strength and tensile modulus were measured in dependence of fibre content.
