  Abstract

A/JFU biocomposites, cell density increased from 6.5횞107 to 8.1횞107, while the cell size and expansion ratio decreased from 40 to 23 關m and 2.41 to 1.45, respectively. Again, on increasing the extent of the jute fiber surface treatment in the biocomposites, cell size and expansion ratio increased from 40 to 78 關m and 2.41 to 2.80 respectively. This study also revealed that the rate of biodegradation accelerated with increase in the jute fiber content in the biocomposites while the same retarded with increase in the extent of jute fiber surface treatment.
