“…Deepak et al. [16] used different weight fractions of jute fibre and nano-clay to develop PMCs and investigated its mechanical properties. The higher properties were observed for composites reinforced with 3 wt% of nano-clay; such composites were intended for developing effective and value added applications like plywood, panels and plush doors.…”

This study deals with the investigation of the mechanical and water absorption properties of jute fibre reinforced epoxy composites prepared by using hand layup method. The effects of fibre length (10, 20, 30 and 40 mm), fibre weight fraction (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20% and 25%), concentration of NaOH treatment (5% and 10%) and nano-clay addition (1, 3, 5 and 7 wt%) on the aforementioned properties were determined. Morphological characterisation was performed for the tensile and flexural fractured surface of the specimens to study their microstructural failures. The results revealed that the composites reinforced with 5% of NaOH-treated fibre and 5 wt% of nano-clay exhibited higher tensile, flexural and impact strengths of 103.05 MPa, 162.8 MPa and 0.358 kJ/mm2 respectively, and lower water absorption rate. Moreover, the optimum fibre length and fibre weight fraction were found to be 30 mm and 20% respectively for better overall properties. These composites can be used for light and medium load applications.

“…By using proper additives, or modification by nanofillers, physical, and mechanical properties of bio-resin can be enhanced. [10,11] Nanoclay is a highly activated potential filler for resin modification to enhance different properties of natural fiber reinforced bio-resin based composites. [12,13] Very limited scientific reports are available on jute reinforced bio-resin based composite with nanoclay.…”

“…Jute composite exhibited maximum tensile strength of 43 MPa (3% nanoclay) and 35 MPa (without nanoclay) due to a better nanoclay dispersion. [11] Naushad et al studied mechanical and damage tolerance properties of sisal fiber reinforced Cloisite 15A based polypropylene (PP) composite. Fabricated composite (40 wt.% of sisal fiber with PP and 3 wt.% nanoclay) showed mechanical strength of 24 MPa but flexural strength of 63 MPa owing to the high aspect ratio of the nanoclay that participated in effective surface interaction.…”

Nanoclay modified bio resin-based jute composites were prepared by thermopressing method to examine the effect of nanoclay on physical, mechanical, and biodegradation properties of jute-soy composite. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy of composite was carried out to study the chemical interactions between jute-soy-nanoclay, whereas, x-ray diffractogram and transmission electron microscopic analysis revealed the formation of nanostructure at the composite interface. With 5 wt.% of clay contents, the tensile strength of the composite was 59.2 MPa, which is 65.4% higher than that of the clay-free jute-soy composite. The developed composite is thermally stable up to 280 C and increased in weight by only 41.66% after 24-h water immersion. Inclusion of 5 wt.% nanoclay enhanced storage modulus of nanocomposite from 1170 to 4136 MPa. Evaluation of degradability of composites under compost condition in terms of weight and tensile loss indicated that clay reinforced composites are more durable than jute-soy composite. Overall, a biodegradable composite material was developed which may be applied as nondegradable plastic alternate in packaging, railway coach, decorating materials, furniture, transport, and construction sector.

In this study, by preparing red pottery clay according to unearthed red pottery clay pieces and using red pottery clay to reinforce high-density polyethylene-based wood–plastic composites, the effects of the amount of red pottery clay on the properties of the fabricated wood–plastic composites were investigated. The results indicated that when the amount of red pottery clay increased, flexural strength and impact strength of the composite initially increased and then decreased; flexural modulus increased and tensile strength and elongation at break decreased. The cone calorimeter tests studied the effects of red pottery clay on the flame retardant and smoke suppressant behaviors of high-density polyethylene-based wood–plastic composites. Red pottery clay formed a ceramic structure on the surface and inside high-density polyethylene, thus preventing high-density polyethylene from interacting with oxygen and increasing the amount of available carbon. As a result, the flame retardant properties of wood–plastic composites were improved due to the addition of red pottery clay. A comprehensive evaluation of the properties of high-density polyethylene-based wood–plastic composites reinforced with red pottery clay showed that addition of 5% of red pottery clay resulted in the most optimal mechanical properties: the addition of red pottery clay improved the density of the composite, decreased the shrinkage rate, and enhanced the flame retardant properties.
