Thermal Properties of Jute Nanofibre Reinforced Composites
Polymer based nanocomposites have been subject of investigation by the dispersion of jute nanofibres within epoxy polymer matrix. Thermal properties of a composite play a vital role in evaluating the product performance as well as predicting the processibility characteristics in polymers in specific applications. The thermal behaviour of the interface between nanofibres reinforcement have been studied by thermogravemetric analysis and Differential scanning calorimetry. The addition of nanofibres with different weight percentages has been (1wt.% to 5wt.%) studied and compared with base composites. The thermal stability of nanocomposite is significantly improved due to incorporation of jute nanofibres. These nanofibre reinforcement between the matrix resin molecules offered some resistance towards the thermal degradation.
