▎ 摘  要

Natural fibre-reinforced composites are being widely employed in many fields. These composites are preferred for their specific properties and eco-friendly nature. Natural fibres do not bond well with resin readily. Alkali treatment of these fibres has been reported to be effective in achieving better bonding. Addition of nanofillers has been reported to enhance the performance of composites. The current work investigates the machinability of jute fibre-reinforced nanophased polymer composite. Machinability is expressed in terms of delamination factor, which has been obtained using image processing technique. The influence of matrix, fibre surface modification and nanofiller on delamination is reported. Machining was done using high-speed steel tool. ANOVA has been performed to identify the parameter that significantly influences the delamination factor. Fibre surface modification and graphene as nanofiller have improved the machinability.
