Jute fiber reinforced PP-based composites (50% fiber by weight) were fabricated using compression molding and the physicomechanical properties were evaluated. Tensile strength, tensile modulus, elongation at break, flexural strength, flexural modulus, and impact strength of the composites were found to be 43.59 MPa, 6382.01 MPa, 81%, 21.85 MPa, 2550.97 MPa, and 45.49 N/m respectively. Then wood flour reinforced PP-based composites (50% fiber by weight) were fabricated and mechanical properties were equated with jute based composites. Jute-based composites showed excellent mechanical properties as compared to wood flour based composites. Also, the thermal properties like heat deflection temperature and flammability were found significantly good for jute based composites as compared with that of wood flour based composites.
