Abstract
Jute fabrics served as reinforcements in the field of natural fiber-based composites. A 4-layer jute-polyester matrix composites are developed using a stacking sequence. The mechanical performance of the jute/polyester composites was evaluated as an improvement using γ-irradiation dosages of 2.5, 5 kGy, 7.5, and 10.0 kGy. After irradiation, the tensile properties of jute/polyester composites increased significantly, TS 15.77 %, BS 30.93 %, and IS 15 %. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) analysis showed good fiber-matrix adhesion, while Energy Dispersive Spectrum (EDS) exhibited carbon and oxygen. To sum up, 7.5 kGy is an effective dose for enhancing the properties of jute/polyester resin which will open a new research avenue for natural fiber-matrix composite development.
