Assessing the consequences of water retention on the structural integrity of jute fiber and its composites: A review

open access: yesSPE Polymers, Volume 5, Issue 4, Page 457-480, October 2024.
Summary of jute fiber reinforced composite and its moisture retention effect. Abstract Researchers have compared natural jute fiber to synthetic fibers due to their distinct physical and mechanical properties, which have been recognized for decades. Jute fibers are a very versatile type of vegetable fibers widely used in structural composites and it ...
