"Jute-carbon and glass-carbon hybrid composites of mixed matrix material [epoxy resin of bisphenol-C (EBC) and bisphenol-C-formaldehyde (BCF) of 50wt% of the fibers] have been prepared by hand lay-up technique at 150 degrees C under 7.6MPa pressure for 2 h. Alkali-treated jute fibers have been acrylated to improve their physico-chemical properties. Tensile strength, flexural strength, electric strength, and volume resistivity of untreated (JCEBCF-50), treated (TJCEBCF-50) jute-carbon and glass-carbon (GCEBCF-50) composites are 10 MPa, 17 MPa, 1.60 kV/mm, and 5.9 x 10(12) Omega-cm; 14.65MPa, 19.33MPa, 2.09 kV/mm, and 6.79 x 10(12) Omega-cm; and 21.4MPa, 24.53 MPa, 1.62 ...
