Popis: A number of formulations was prepared with oligomer urethane acrylate (Eb-264) combined with a diluent monomer of different acrylated functionalities in the presence of a plasticizer, an antibubbling agent, ligands, and organo-metallic complexes. The complexes were made with benzohydroxamato-pyridine (complex 1) and benzohydroxamato-ethylenediamine (complex 2) in the presence of TiO2. Thin polymer films were prepared under ultraviolet (UV) radiation with these solutions and were characterized. A jute–plastic composite was prepared with these solutions under UV radiation. The tenacity of the treated jute was increased by about 25% with reduced water absorption ability, but the presence of a minute amount (0.1%) of an organo-metallic complex in the formulation also enhanced jute tenacity up to 223%. The effect of their ligands on these properties was also investigated; both of the complexes substantially enhanced the properties of jute yarns rather than their ligands.
