description This work examines the effects of processing parameters such as pressure and temperature on the tensile properties of plain woven jute fabric reinforced recycled polypropylene composite. The main objective of this study is to the utilization of recycled polypropylene in a better way. By recycling of this polypropylene will reduce the environmental impacts and preparation of composites by this recyclable plastic can be used for various applications. In this study, eight different composite laminates under varying pressure (1, 2, 3, 4 MPa) and temperature (190, 210, 230, 250 °C) were produced and they were found to have similar fiber weight fractions up to 62%. Tensile tests were carried out on these composites to optimize the processing parameters. From the static tensile, the various test specimens exposed that the variation in temperature and pressure levels during the performance have a significant effect on the tensile properties of the bio-composites.
