Abstract

Global market demand for hygiene absorbent products are increasing. Jute may be a better replacement of cotton fibres to manufacture cellulose laps used in disposable absorption products. Cellulose pads were developed using jute fibre and waste jute blended with Superabsorbent polymer(SAP). The waste jute was treated to increase its water absorbency. SAP was blended with treated jute and packed into disposable pads. Various water absorbency tests, MTT Assay, Soil burial test, Microbial evaluation tests were conducted which confirmed that Jute when blended with SAP can be used in making cellulose pads at a cheaper rates highly beneficial to the rural population.
