摘要
Jute fibers were investigated to verify their possible application in reinforcement of thermoplastics. A laboratory press was modified and laminates were produced using polymer films of LDPE, HDPE, PE copolymer, and PP as interlayers. Variations of the processing parameters were carried out in order to find optimal adjustment. High molding temperature leads to a decrease of mechanical properties and water absorption ability of the composites. The effect of water treatment on mechanical properties was also studied.
