We report on the moisture regain, relative vapor pressure, hysteresis, and mechanical properties of two varieties of jute fibers. Corchorus capsularis grade 2 and Corchorus olitorius grade 2, modified by treatment with sebacoyl chloride, tolylene diisocyanate unsaturated polyester resin, vinyl ester resin, γ-aminopropyl trimethoxy silane, and isopropyl triisostearoyl titanate. All the treated fibers showed a reduction in moisture regain, but some fibers had superior moisture repellent behavior with no deterioration in their mechanical properties, while others suffered a loss in mechanical properties.
