Abstract
Jute is one of the natural cellulosic textile materials. It has many advantageous properties similar to cotton. Jute fibre has potential to impart different functionality by different chemical finishing for its diversification. In this research, Water repellent jute fabrics have been prepared by treating Nova TTC (fluorocarbon compound) different ratio and to find out the best formulation recipe. Treating fabrics have been impaired with a water repellent characteristic and showing good rating result on jute fabric .This water repellent fabric was suitable of various jute products for diverse textile uses.
