Abstract

Sisal (Agave sisalana) as a perennial tropical plant grows abundantly in Indonesia. Its fibers can be used as the reinforcement agent of biocomposite products. Utilization of sisal as natural fiber has some notable benefits compared to synthetic fibers, such as renewable, light in weight, and low in cost. Manufacture of biocomposite requires the use of matrix such as thermoplastic polymer, e.g. polypropylene (PP) and polylactic acid (PLA) to bond together with the reinforcement agent (e.g. sisal fibers). In relevant, experiment was conducted on biocomposites manufacture that comprised sisal fibers and PP as well as PLA. Sisal fibers were converted into pulp, then refined to micro-size fibrillated fibers such that their diameter reduced to about 10 μm, and dried in an oven. The dry microfibrillated sisal pulp fibers cellulose (MSFC) were thoroughly mixed with either PP or PLA with varying ratios of MSFC/PP as well as MSFC/PLA, and then shaped into the mat (i.e. MSFC-PP and MSFC-PLA biocomposites). Two kinds of shaping was employed, i.e. hot-press molding and injection molding. In the hot-press molding, the ratio of  MSFC/PP as well as MSFC/PLA ranged about 30/70-50/50. Meanwhile in the injection (employed only on assembling the MSFC-PLA biocomposite), the ratio of MSFC/PLA varied about 10/90-30/70. The resulting shaped MSFC-PP and MSFC-PLA biocomposites were then tested of its physical and mechanical properties. With the hot-press molding device, the physical and mechanical (strength) properties of MSFC-PLA biocomposite were higher than those of  MSFC-PP biocomposite. The optimum ratio of  MSFC/PP as well as MSFC/PLA reached concurrently at 40/60. The strengths of MSFC-PP as well as MSFC-PLA biocomposites were greater than those of individual polymer (PP and PLA). With the injection molding device, only the MSFC-PLA  biocomposite  was formed  and its strengths  reached  maximum  at 30/70  ratio.  The particular strengths (MOR and MOE) of MSFC-PLA biocomposite shaped with injection molding were lower than those with hot-press molding, both at 30/70 ratio. The overall MOR of such MSFC- PLA biocomposite was lower than that of pure PLA, while its MOE was still mostly higher.

Abstract

EFFECTS OF CHITOSAN COATING ON THE PHYSICAL, MECHANICAL AND ANTIMICROBIAL PROPERTIES OF FOOD PACKAGING PAPER. The coating process on food packaging paper is carried out to improve the food safety and health aspect from dangerous substance migration from food packaging into food. Chitosan has attracted interest in packaging, especially in food packaging as edible films and coatings. A paper from oil palm empty fruit bunches (OPEFB) pulp was coated with chitosan using different pulp weight (1, 1.5, 2 g) and chitosan content (0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1 g) as parameters. The effect of chitosan as coating material on physical, mechanical, and antimicrobial properties was studied. The results showed that the density and grammage values of the paper increased after coating due to the increasing of chitosan content. The mechanical properties of the coated paper, such as tensile strength, tensile modulus and elongation, improved in line with the increase of chitosan content and pulp weight. The addition of chitosan on paper imparts antimicrobial properties against Gram-positive bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus) and Gram- negative bacteria (Escherichia coli).

Abstract

Green composites were needed by automotive industries because they are environmentally friendly, recyclable, lightweight and strong. Natural fibers such as bamboo and sisal are potential source of these materials and can be used as substitutes of fiber glass which is hard to recycle and not renewable.  In this experiment, bio-composites made from micro fibers of betung bamboo (Dendrocalamus asper) and sisal (Agave sisalana) mixed with a natural polymer of polylactic acid (PLA) were developed that may used for automotive application. Bamboo or sisal fibers were converted into pulp and processed using a disc refiner to produce microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) with fiber diameter around 10 µm. MFC was mixed with PLA and triacetin and dried. The mixture was processed in a mixer at temperature of 170ºC, speed of 60 rpm for 20 min. The compound mixture was removed and processed into pellets using a pelletizer at 170ºC. Pellets were processed using injection molding machine. The compositions of fibers/PLA were 10/90, 20/80, and 30/70. The mechanical properties were tested in accordance with ASTM standards. Result shown that optimum composition ratio of bamboo fibers/PLA was 20/80 which gave flexural strength of 62.30 MPa, flexural modulus of 3.89 GPa, tensile strength of 44.55 MPa, tensile modulus of 1.20 GPa, and hardness of 112.90 R. While the optimum composition ratio of sisal fibers/PLA was 30/70 which gave flexural strength of 67.83 MPa, flexural modulus of 4.43 GPa, tensile strength of 48.18 MPa, tensile modulus of 1.13 GPa, and hardness of 110.50 R.

Abstract

Batang kelapa sawit mengandung kadar pati yang tinggi sehingga memiliki potensi digunakan sebagai bahan baku bioplastik. Kadar amilosa dalam pati batang kelapa sawit dapat dinaikkan melalui proses modifikasi dengan pelarut asetat. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah untuk meningkatkan sifat kimia (kadar amilosa) dan termal pati batang kelapa sawit melalui proses modifikasi sebagai bahan baku bioplastik. Dalam penelitian ini, pati batang kelapa sawit diperoleh melalui proses ekstraksi. Modifikasi pati batang kelapa sawit dilakukan dengan menggunakan larutan asetat (CH3COOH+CH3COONa) pH 7. Karakterisasi pati batang sawit dilakukan dengan melihat komposisi kimia (kadar air, abu, protein, lemak, amilosa, dan amilopektin), analisis gugus , dan karakteristik termal. Hasil karakterisasi komposisi kimia pati batang kelapa sawit termodifikasi menunjukkan peningkatan kadar amilosa dari 26% menjadi 29%. Kandungan rantai lurus dalam amilosa yang semakin banyak akan meningkatkan kestabilan pati. Hasil Thermal Gravimetry Analysis (TGA) menunjukkan bahwa pati batang kelapa sawit termodifikasi lebih cepat terdegradasi dibandingkan pati batang kelapa sawit tidak termodifikasi/alami, sedangkan data Derivative Thermal Gravimetry (DTG) dan analisis Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) menunjukkan pengurangan massa pati batang kelapa sawit termodifikasi lebih kecil dari pati batang kelapa sawit tidak termodifikasi/alami serta pati batang kelapa sawit termodifikasi mempunyai Tg (Gelatinization Temperature) yang lebih rendah. Hasil penelitian pati batang kelapa sawit termodifikasi ini diharapkan dapat diaplikasikan sebagai bahan baku bioplastik yang ramah lingkungan.

Abstract

THE EFFECT OF OXIDATION ON SAGO STARCH AND ITS APPLICATION AS EDIBLE FILM. The oxidation reaction with hydrogen peroxide in sago starch can influence the proximate test value, physicochemical properties and edible film properties. The hydrogen peroxide formula for starch modifica- tion is 1, 2, 3 and 4%. The presence of hydrogen peroxide increases the physicochemical properties of sago starch so that the quality of modified sago starch is better than pure sago starch. Glycerol is used to improve film flexibility in the manufacture of edible coatings. The characterization of edible film includes water content, contact angle and elongation. Edible film from modified sago starch shows lower water content compared to pure sago starch films. The oxidation effect of H2O2 on edible film results in changes in the hydrophilic properties including the contact angle. Edible film of pure sago starch shows a lower contact angle value. The hydrophilic nature of edible film decreases in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. The high hydrophobicity of the modified sago starch film is caused by the role of carboxyl groups in the starch molecule chain.

Abstract

PICKERING EMULSION TECHNOLOGY IN FABRICATE CELLULOSE FOAM FROM OILPALM EMPTY FRUIT BUNCH WASTE. Cellulose from the oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) waste can make a porous material. This study aims to make cellulose foam with Pickering emulsion technology used cellulose nanofiber as a Pickering agent. The mechanism of Pickering emulsion is learned from foamability and stability of foam in the presence of various concentrations of surfactant. The result showed that using Pickering emulsion technology only needed surfactant with a small concentration to improve foamability and stability. The addition of CNF indeed improved the stability and foamability with the Pickering effect. The stability test shows that the foam stabilized with CNF appeared to be relatively stable. In contrast to the CNF free system, the foams were collapse in three days tested. Structures of foam was characterized using an optical microscope and showed that the foam was composed into two- or three dimensional microstructures formed by gas bubble of wet foam in random orientations. This process generated the lightweight Cellulose foam from OPEFB waste, with a density of 0.07 g/cm3. Using Pickering emulsion technology to make cellulose foam can be one way to overcome OPEFB waste and this foam is potential for various applications.
