Abstract

In today's scenario, due to environmental sustainability use of natural fibre is increased as reinforcement material in polymer composites. Herein, unidirectional jute yarn reinforced epoxy composites (JYREC) are prepared using hand lay-up technique. The novelty of the work is to study the effect of linear density varies from 4 to 12 lb/spyndle of jute yarn on the static and dynamic properties of the epoxy composite. The cross-section and microscopic morphologies of composite samples is investigated with the aid of optical microscope and SEM. The results show that with increase in the linear density; tensile strength (45.86 MPa), impact strength (9.41 kJ/m2) and storage modulus (5443.08 MPa) of the JYREC increases up to 8 lb/spyndle jute yarn after that downtrend is observed. The balanced combination of number of yarns in the composite for the same mass loading fraction, twist per inch and tenacity of individual jute yarn is responsible for the resultant properties of the composites. The effectiveness of interfacial attraction between the jute yarn and epoxy resin is conform by the DMA results. The results reveal that JYREC can be engineered for the automobile and building components such as portioning panels applications.
