In this project work, jute fabric is used as reinforcement and PLA (poly lactic acid) film is the matrix by which composites are made by stacking of number of fabric layers in between the PLA films.
Among the plant fibers, jute is the second most important bast fibre after cotton because of its easy availability at low cost. It is produced from plants in the genus Corchorus, family Tiliaceae. Jute fibers are composed primarily of the plant materials cellulose and lignin.
