SPE Polymers, Volume 7, Issue 3, July 2026.Symmetrical Jute/JUCO/Glass hybrid epoxy composites were reinforced with TiO2 and CuO microparticles. Incorporating 3 wt.% CuO increased tensile strength by up to 63.7%, while 3 wt.% TiO2 maximized flexural and impact properties alongside superior moisture resistance, demonstrating that these fillers significantly enhance natural fiber biocomposites ...
