Abstract

Kemasan plastik banyak digunakan pada industri makanan dan minuman di Indonesia karena praktis dan mudah. Namun, disisi lain ini merupakan bencana bagi lingkungan karena plastik merupakan bahan yang sulit terurai (nondegradable). Edible film merupakan salah satu alternatif yang dapat dipertimbangkan untuk menggantikan kemasan plastik. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah memanfaatkan kitosan dari limbah cangkang rajungan dan pektin dari limbah kulit pisang kepok sebagai bahan baku pembuatan edible film. Kitosan diperoleh dari proses degreasing, deproteinasi, demineralisasi dan deasetilasi cangkang rajungan. Pektin diperoleh dari proses hidrolisis kulit pisang kepok. Edible film yang berbasis kitosan dan pektin dibuat melalui proses blending dengan ratio (K:P) 100:0; 60:40; 50:50: 40:60 dan 0:100. Analisis karakteristik yang dilakukan meliputi warna, transparan, ketebalan, kelarutan dalam air, laju transmisi uap air (WVTR), kadar air, swelling degree, biodegradabilitas, dan aktivitas antimikroba. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan edible film kitosan dan pektin yang paling optimal adalah ratio 50:50.

Abstract

Nanocomposite ZnO-SiO2 is widely known for its efficacy as a semiconductor photocatalyst. Current nanocomposite production methods face challenges like particle agglomeration and inconsistent particle size control. To overcome this problem, the ultrasonication method was used to prevent agglomeration and produce composites in nanoscale, where this study synthesized ZnO-SiO2 for photocatalytic degradation of dye color. To prepare this nanocomposite, the ultrasonication time was varied from 0 to 45 minutes to understand the particle properties and the effectivity on the photocatalytic activity. Silica was prepared from water glass via sol-gel method to produce colloidal SiO2 nanoparticles and then mixed with ZnO with the ratio of 3% wt and subjected to ultrasonication method. Under various ultrasonication time, the FTIR analysis shows the Si-O peak at 895 cm-1 indicates the presence of SiO2 particles. The XRD validate the formation of ZnO-SiO2 nanoparticles, supporting the FTIR analysis. The best nanoparticle properties were achieved with 45 minutes of ultrasonication. The SEM analysis confirms the present of SiO2 and ZnO. From BET analysis, ZnO-SiO2 has a high surface area (117.64 m2/g), moderate pore volume (0.46 cm3/g), and small particle pore size (11.59 nm). The photocatalytic activity of ZnO-SiO₂ nanocomposites was evaluated by the degradation of methylene blue (MB) under sunlight and the best performance reached by the nanocomposite prepared under 45 minutes ultrasonication. The results show that the ultrasonication technique efficiently reduces agglomeration, as indicated by a reduction in particle diameter from 35.04 nm (pure ZnO) to 11.59 nm (ZnO-SiO₂), and significantly enhances photocatalytic activity, achieving 97% degradation of MB under sunlight after 180 minutes. The aforementioned technique demonstrates significant potential for industrial use, providing higher efficiency and expandability in manufacturing superior photocatalytic substances.

Abstract

Suture anchor is used to attach soft tissues to the bone. One of the materials that can be used for making suture anchors is hydroxyapatite [Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2]. Hydroxyapatite (HAp)  has similarities with the properties of bone minerals, so it has the potential to be used as a material for making biocompatible suture anchors. However, HAp is brittle and has poor strength, so HAp is usually combined with polymers such as composites to overcome the limitations of its mechanical properties. One of the polymers that can be used is Polycaprolactone (PCL). In this study, HAp was synthesized from rice field snail shells, due to its high calcium contents.  Further, the combination of HAp and PCL in the manufacture of 3D printing filaments such as suture anchors was obtained. The variables used in this study were the mixing ratio of HAp:PCL in making filaments with a mixing ratio of 0.5:9.5; 1:9 ; 2:8. The results of various variables shows that the tensile strength most optimal composite in 7,3 % when mixing HAp:PCl is 0.5:9,5.

Abstract

Nanohydroxyapatite with the molecular formula Ca10(PO4)6(OH)2 is a calcium phosphate compound that is most widely used in biomedical applications such as bone and dental implants due to its high biocompatibility. The synthesis of nanohydroxyapatite can be carried out using CaCO3 rich materials such rice field snail shell (Pila ampullacea) with a composition of 93.4% CaCO3. The nanohydroxyapatite synthesis method used is Ultrasound Assisted Precipitation. Calcium obtained from the natural material of rice field snail shell (Pila ampullacea) was reacted with H3PO4 precursor at variable 0.3; 0.5; 0.8; 1; 1.3 M until a precipitate of nanohydroxyapatite particles was formed. To determine the effect of H3PO4 concentration, analysis was conducted on the characteristics of the synthesized nanohydroxyapatite. The SEM-EDX analysis revealed a Ca/P ratio of 1.59-1.72 with spherical particle morphology. The FTIR analysis indicated the presence of hydroxyapatite in the sample through the P-O and O-H functional groups.
