- Biodegradation Studies of Polyvinyl Alcohol/Corn Starch Blend Films in Solid and Solution Media (2011, background): “Assuming the absorption process was linear at an early stage of immersion, the time was taken at the beginning of absorption process so that the weight change was expected to vary linearly with the square root of time.(16)”
- Environmental effects on the mechanical behaviour of pultruded jute/glass fibre-reinforced polyester hybrid composites (2014, unknown): “Pultrusion offers an attractive performance-to-price ratio as well as easy processing, but hardly any literature exists on the pultrusion of natural fibre composites [22–26] and in particular on their moisture resistance.”
- Biocomposites reinforced with natural fibers: 2000–2010 (2012, background): “The water absorption behavior of pultruded jute fiber reinforced unsaturated polyester composites was found to follow so-called pseudo-Fickian behavior [427].”
- Effect of water absorption on pultruded jute/glass fiber-reinforced unsaturated polyester hybrid composites (2012, methodology): “This is due, in particular, to the hydrophilic nature of natural fibers, that are more sensitive toward water absorption than synthetic fibers, which cause instability in the properties of the composites.(5,7) The synthetic fiber composites system shows minimum moisture absorption, compared to other”
