Studying the effect of jute fiber reinforcement on epoxy mechanical properties

This study investigate the Epoxy performance after reinforcing with Jute fibers. Before reinforcement process, natural jute fibers were immersed in three different concentrations of acetic acid (1%, 5%,10%) for one hour, then epoxy composites made from these treated a way that weight fraction is 30% also other samples composite but untreated Upon making reinforced composites, mechanical properties tested, namely shore-D hardness, roughness, shock resistance and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) examination had been subjected to impact test order examine fracture surface those samples.This proved when bout increase strength composite.
