Abstract
New composites of jute fabrics and polycarbonate (PC) were prepared by compression molding. The surface of the composites was modified by coupling agents N-(-amino ethyl) -aminopropyl trimethoxy silane (Z-6020) to improve the interfacial adhesion between jute and PC. Enhanced mechanical properties were produced by the modified jute composites. The treated and untreated jute surface as well as composites were characterized by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), environmental scanning electron microscopy (ESEM), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC).
