Abstract

Casting is one of method that used in forming the work piece by melting specific metal and pouring into moulding that has been prepared. This study aimed to determine the effect of the use of Bangkalan clay as binder in sand moulding against tensile strength, hardness, and defects in Al-Si casting alloy by using gravity casting method. The method used in this study was experimental method then using descriptive analysis. Descriptive analysis included explanation of the test result of tensile strength, hardness, and the type of surface defect of Al-Si casting. Based on the research result obtained the highest shear strength in wet condition obtained on sand moulding which had the highest tensile strength, that was sand moulding with composition of 12% Bangkalan clay, and 0.5% bentonite. While the highest hardness value of Al-Si casting result obtained on specimen with variation of 12% Bangkalan clay with the value of 131.9 HV. Casting defects that appeared on the surface of all casting product variations. The defects that found were fin defects, pinhole defects, sand loss defects, and surface roughness. Based on the result above, could be concluded that variation of 9% Bangkalan clay and 0.5% bentonite as binder was the best variation.

Abstract

Indonesia one of the tropical countries in the world can not be separated from environment problems like other developing countries. One of the causes of declining environment quality is the decline of forests in Indonesia. In 2009, Indonesia’s forest area was   by more than half, to about 88 million hectares. By the year 2013 the number is about 82 million hectares. One of the efforts to promote environment education is to familiarize planting plants to children from an early age from the school environment to the family environment. Therefore it is necessary an alternative in the form of planting media that can be used as a trigger tool of environmental care attitude and can feel the sensation of planting that educative by utilizing pine flower waste as an attractive and environmentally friendly planting medium. Besides as a planting medium is also intended as a instructional media especially elementary school students to high school students. This is because the planting medium has a goal to give an educative impression through information on plant species being planted and to increase awareness of the surrounding environment. If used as a medium of learning this planting media will bring up information about the plant being planted by way of scanning pot characters with gadgets then information about the classification of plants, root shapes, stems, leaves, flowers, how
