CA-Chitosan effect on the time dependent serviceability of jute geotextile under unpaved roads
Journal of Natural Fibers, 2022 Biodegradable jute geotextiles (JGTs) are an effective reinforcing material for unpaved roads, but its serviceability is limited because of faster microbial degradation. Different methods are in use to improve the serviceability of jute geotextiles.
