Jute fabrics reinforced Unsaturated Polyester Resin (UPR)-based composites were prepared by conventional hand lay-up technique. Different proportions (5 to 50% by weight) of fibre content was used in preparation of the composite. Tensile Strength (TS), Tensile Modulus (TM), Bending Modulus (BM), Bending Strength (BS), Impact Strength (IS) of the fabricated composites were studied. Upon each addition of fiber content in the matrix, mechanical properties of the composites were increased. The Tensile Strength (TS) of the 5% and 50% fiber reinforced composites was 18 MPa and 42 MPa respectively. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) showed interfacial properties of the composites and it was revealed that the bond between fiber and matrix was excellent.

Jute fabrics reinforced Polypropylene (PP) matrix composite was fabricated by compression molding and Unsaturated Polyester Resin (UPR) matrix composites were also fabricated by hand lay-up technique. The fiber content of the composites was 40% by weight. Mechanical properties between two types of composites were compared. Tensile Strength (TS), Tensile Modulus (TM), Elongation at break (Eb%) , and Impact Strength (IS) of the jute fabrics/PP composites were found to be 47 MPa, 1.2 GPa, 13% and 8 kg/cm, respectively. On the other hand, TS, TM, Eb%, and IS of the jute fabrics/UPR composite were found to be 43 MPa, 1.3 GPa, 10% and 6 kg/cm, respectively. It was found that both composites showed almost similar mechanical properties. After tensile testing, fracture sides of both types of the composites were studied by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and the results revealed poor fiber matrix adhesion for jute fabrics with PP and UPR. The fabricated composites became partly biodegradable because of jute (natural fiber) and mechanical properties of both types of composites showed promising results for commercial applications.

Woven jute fabric was used as a reinforcing material for making two types of composite, named Jute/PR and Jute/Epoxy, with two different matrixes of polyester resin and epoxy, respectively, by hand layup techniques. Five different doses of gamma radiation from 100 to 500 krad were used to investigate the effects of the mechanical properties of the composites and the jute fabrics. Though gamma radiation improved the mechanical properties, such as the tensile strength (TS) and Young’s modulus (Y), and decreased the elongation at break % (Eb%) of the composites, it deteriorated all these properties for jute fabrics. The highest values of TS and Y and the lowest value of Eb% were found to be 39.44 Mpa, 1218.33 Mpa, and 7.68% for the Jute/PR; and 48.83 Mpa, 1459.67 Mpa, and 3.68% for the Jute/Epoxy composites, respectively, at a 300 krad gamma radiation dose. A further increase in dose altered all these properties; thus, 300 krad was found to be the optimum dose for both of the composites. Between the two composites, gamma radiation influenced the Jute/PR composite more than the Jute/Epoxy composite.

Now a days environment is getting polluted due to different types of manmade reasons than ever for extreme use of synthetic materials. Various kinds of waste materials from numerous industries are also enhancing this. So, Utilization of waste materials and reduction of synthetic materials will definitely subside the environmental pollution. In this research, waste jute fabric and leather waste (cow hides) were used as reinforcing agent and unsaturated polyester resin (UPR) as matrix to prepare environmental friendly composite materials. Hand-lay up method was conducted to fabricate composite materials. Different percentages of waste leather and used jute fabrics were used with the UPR. Improved mechanical properties, tensile strength (TS), tensile modulus (TM), and percentage elongation at break (EB) were observed with the certain percentage of waste materials. Composites were also characterised by the scanning electron microscope (SEM) and fourier transform infrared (FTIR).

The paintings by the great Hungarian master Mihaly Munkacsy (1844-1900) made in an 8-9 years period of his activity are deteriorating. The most conspicuous sign of the deterioration is an intensive darkening. We have made an attempt by electron beam microanalysis to clarify the causes of the darkening. The importance of a study like this is increased by the fact that a similar darkening can be observed on the paintings by Munkacsy’s contemporaries e.g Courbet and Makart. A thick brown mass the so called bitumen used by Munkacsy for grounding and also as a paint is believed by the art historians to cause the darkening.For this study, paint specimens were taken from the following paintings: “Studio”, “Farewell” and the “Portrait of the Master’s Wife”, all of them are the property of the Hungarian National Gallery. The paint samples were embedded in a polyester resin “Poly-Pol PS-230” and after grinding and polishing their cross section was used for x-ray mapping.
