TLDR
In this paper, surface modifications of two varieties of jute fabrics, i.e. hessian cloth (HC) and carpet backing cloth (CBC), involving dewaxing, alkali treatment, cyanoethylation and grafting, have been made with a view to their use as reinforcing agents in composites based on a biodegradable polymeric matrix, Biopol.About:

Biocomposites reinforced with natural fibers: 2000–2010
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of literature on bio-fiber reinforced composites is presented in this paper, where the overall characteristics of reinforcing fibers used in biocomposites, including source, type, structure, composition, as well as mechanical properties, are reviewed.
Journal ArticleDOI
A Review on Natural Fiber Reinforced Polymer Composite and Its Applications
TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the most appropriate and widely used natural fiber reinforced polymer composites (NFPCs) and their applications is presented in this paper. But, the results of the review are limited due to the high water absorption, inferior fire resistance, and lower mechanical properties of NFPCs.

The effect of silane treatment on the mechanical and physical properties of sisal-epoxy composites
E T N Bisanda,Martin P. Ansell +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the surface of sisal fibres has been modified by mercerization and silane treatment to improve adhesion characteristics and moisture resistance, which is most effective in reducing moisture uptake of fibres in humid environments.

Construction materials based upon biologically renewable resources—from components to finished parts
TL;DR: By embedding natural fibres eg flax, hemp, ramie, etc into a biopolymeric matrix made of derivatives from cellulose, starch, lactic acid, etc, new fibre reinforced materials, the so-called biocomposites, were created at the DLR Institute of Structural Mechanics in 1989 and are still being developed as discussed by the authors.
