Abstract
Natural fiber reinforced composites (NFRCs) are increasingly used in a variety of commercial applications, but there has been little theoretical, micromechanical modeling of structure/property relationships in these materials. These can’t be met by conventional metal alloys. The scope of possible uses of natural fibers is enormous.Plenty of research work is done on natural fiber composites. But, woven jute fiber and bio based polyurethane resin matrix is not used extensively for research studies. Mostly mathematical model is used to investigate and predict the properties and fiber loads effect on mechanical properties. The combination of jute fiber with PU produced the material that is competitive to synthetic composites. Literature review shows that composite made of combination of these constituents is not studied mechanically in order to evaluate its properties. The present paper focus is on the experimental analysis and testing of untreated woven jute fiber and PUR composite. The tensile properties of natural fiber reinforced composites (NFRCs) are modeled experimental method.
