Blending of Jute with Different Natural Fibres
Gautam Basu,A. N. Roy +1 more
TL;DR: The second most important natural fibre (after cotton) in terms of global consumption, is extensively used for the manufacture of flexible packaging fabrics besides its prospective use as carpet backing, decorative fabrics, and in some other fields of technical textiles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Construction of unpaved rural road using jute–synthetic blended woven geotextile – A case study
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used jute-high density polyethylene (HDPE) blended geotextile samples for road construction in the construction of unpaved rural roads.
Journal ArticleDOI
Exploration of future prospects of Indian pineapple leaf, an agro waste for textile application.
TL;DR: In this paper, an attempt has been made to extract and soften pineapple leaf fibre by decortication of leaves followed by water retting and the retted fibres were then degummed and bleached for better processibility and aesthetic look.
Journal ArticleDOI
Fire retardant finish of jute fabric with nano zinc oxide
TL;DR: Nano zinc oxide (ZnO) was applied on bleached jute fabric to impart fire retardant finish as discussed by the authors. But, the performance of nano ZnO was limited.
Journal ArticleDOI
Accelerated retting cum softening of coconut fibre
TL;DR: In this article, an accelerated chemical retting of raw coconut fiber was attempted, which showed positive result towards mechanical proprieties Fine structure analysis of the treated fibres through FTIR, XRD, TGA, SEM and component analysis validates the beneficial modification with improved properties.
