Jute is organic material with extraordinary strength and should be looked at as an additive to cement. JMDC( Jute Manufacturers development council) Calcutta India is looking at using jute as an additive to cement .Jute could make it much stronger without adding weight.Jute can be used in making porous high strength flexible slabs .These slabs will be much better for water absorption and controlling water run offs.A lot of compounds are added to cement for giving it different qualities including polyester liquid, steel and other retardants and accelerants.
Creating finished products using jute for testing would be a great start.I am glad India is becoming a place where applied technologies are being developed in our universities.Soon these applications will be able to add to the world knowledge.
