Enzymatic hydrophobization of jute fabrics and its effect on the mechanical and interfacial properties of jute/PP composites
In this work, a hydrophobic surface of lignocellulosic jute fabric was achieved via the laccase-mediated grafting of octadecylamine (OA) on lignin moieties of jute aiming to improve the interfacial compatibility with the hydrophobic polypropylene (PP) resins in the fiber-reinforced composites. First...
