Jute and flax fibers were improved under UV radiation using methyl methacrylate (MMA) mixed with methanol (MeOH). There was a 30% enhancement of tenacity for these fibers against 3-8% grafting of MMA with the fibers. Incorporation of 1% of one of the additives 2-ethyl hexyl acrylate (EHA), urea (U),

## Abstract The influence of polypropylene fibers on the thermal degradation of epoxy composites was investigated with thermogravimetric analysis. Three composites with 5, 10, or 15 wt % polypropylene fibers were prepared with epoxy as a matrix material. The polypropylene fibers, used as reinforcin
