摘要：

Jute fabrics reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites (45 wt % fiber) were prepared by compression molding and their mechanical properties were investigated. Both jute fabrics and PP sheets were treated with gamma radiation (250-1,000 krad dose) at a rate of 350 krad/h. Irradiated jute fabrics were soaked into ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) solutions (5-40% by weight) and cured in an oven at different temperatures (40-100 degrees C) for 60 min. The percentage of polymer loading (PL) was evaluated and found that 20% EGDMA-treated jute fabrics contains the highest PL. Composites made of 20% EGDMA-treated jute fabrics were studied further. It was found that the treatment using the EGDMA improved the mechanical properties of the composites significantly. Scanning electron microscopy and aging properties of untreated and treated composites were performed. POLYM. COMPOS., 32:1888-1894, 2011. (C) 2011 Society of Plastics Engineers
