Pengaruh Perlakuan Filler Serat Kulit Buah Pinang Menggunakan Silane Coupling Agent terhadap Sifat Fisis dan Mekanis Papan Partikel

Abstract

This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the addition of Silane Coupling Agent on physical properties (density, moisture content, thickness expansion, and water absorption) and flexural strength in the manufacture of areca nut peel fiber particle board with urea formaldehyde adhesive. The betel nut peel fiber was alkalized using NaOH for 2 hours, then mashed using a grinding machine until it passed a 50 mesh sieve. The betel nut skin fibers that have passed the sieve are then treated with a solution of Silane Coupling Agent. The concentration variations of the Silane Coupling Agent solution were 0%, 2%, 4%, 6% and 8%. The betel nut peel fiber that has been synthesized with a silane coupling agent solution is then mixed with urea formaldehyde resin in a ratio of 30/70 in weight percent. The particleboard compaction process uses a Hydraulic Cold Press compacting machine with a pressure of 5 bar and a holding time of 120 minutes. The results of this study indicate that the silane coupling agent treatment increases the bond between the matrix and filler as shown in the SEM test on particle boards with 8% silane coupling agent treatment. The results of the particleboard test on density, percentage of moisture content, percentage of thickness development have met the standard of SNI 03-2105-2006. The results of the water absorption test have met the ASTM D 570 standard. The results of the flexural strength test on the SCA 6% variation SNI 03-2105-2006 decorative particle board type 8 and the SCA 8% variation have met the SNI standard 03-2105-2006 structural particle board type 10.5.This study aims to examine the effectiveness of the addition of Silane Coupling Agent on physical properties (density, moisture content, thickness expansion, and water absorption) and flexural strength in the manufacture of areca nut peel fiber particle board with urea formaldehyde adhesive.

Biokomposit Papan Partikel diperkuat Serat Alam Sabut Kelapa dan Tempurung Kelapa dan matriks epoksi

“…Papan partikel serat alam telah banyak digunakan di berbagai aplikasi seperti pada komponen otomotif, industri furniture, dan medis [4]. Papan partikel diperkuat serat alam yang telah banyak diteliti sebelumnya adalah dengan menggunkan serat alam diantaranya adalah serat kenaf, sisal , rami, serat pisang dan masih banyak penelitian lain yang menggunakan serat alam [5] [6] [7] [8].…”

Characteristics of Termite Anti Particle Board From Bintaro Fruit Fiber With Bintaro Fruit Seed Extract Coating Using Spray Coating Method

“…Bintaro fruit fiber that has been separated from the shell is ground using a greending machine until smooth. Bintaro fruit fiber that has been refined is filtered using a 50 mesh sieve [13].…”

“…The mixed Bintaro fruit fiber and resin are put into a particle board mold 103 measuring (21 x 21 x 3) cm and covered with aluminum foil . The fiber and UF resin that has been put into the mold are leveled so that there are no parts of the mold that are not filled and then compressed using a cold press with a pressure of 5 bar for 2 hours [13] , so that 2 cm is obtained for the thickness of the particle board. Lift the felt cover and gently pick up the printed particle board .…”

“…Bintaro seeds that have been separated from their shells are sun-dried for 1 week and baked for 1 hour at 40°C [15]. The dried Bintaro seeds were crushed using a grinding machine with a fineness of 50 mesh [13] .…”
