Abstract: | Jute fiber mat (hessian cloth) reinforced PET-based composites (50% fiber by weight) and E-glass fiber matreinforced PET based composites (50% fiber by weight) were fabricated by compression molding and the mechanical properties tensile strength (TS), tensile modulus (TM), elongation at break (%), bending strength (BS), bending modulus (BM), impact strength (IS) and hardness (Shore-A) of the composites were evaluated and compared. The interfacial properties of the both composites were also compared. Water uptake test and soil degradation test were also investigated. |
