Jute Fiber-Reinforced Polymer Composites: A Comprehensive Review

Researchers and scientists, nowadays, are trying to explore the eco-friendlier materials which would significantly reduce the dependency on synthetic fibers and its composites. Jute fiber could be a suitable substitution to synthetic fiber as a reinforcement of polymer. The more enhancements of the mechanical properties can be achieved utilizing several fiberreinforced parameters which include fiber content, fiber loading, size, and orientation, etc. Moreover, the properties of composite materials can be enhanced using the perfect matrix combination which includes polypropylene, polyester, epoxy resin, etc. Furthermore, chemical treatments of the fiber can improve the properties of jute fiber composites. This paper discusses a comprehensive review of all the factors include fiber parameters, chemical treatments of fiber, and manufacturing processes of composites that affect the mechanical properties of the jute fiber-reinforced polymer composites
