Abstract

In this modern era, humans cannot be separated from utilizing electronic devices. The unwanted noise or disturbance problem in electronic devices is majorly caused by Electromagnetic Interference (EMI). Recent technology and materials are being developed to manufacture EMI shielding composites. Carbon nanomaterial-based composites have become a very attractive material because of their lightweight, incredible mechanical, thermal, and conductivity properties. Carbon nanofibers (CNFs) and metal oxides are promising combination materials that reveal unique properties of both components to enhance shielding effectiveness. This combination of CNFs and metal oxides results in a synergistic effect, where the conductive CNFs enhances the reflection of EMI, and the metal oxides contribute to the absorption and attenuation of the waves. In this review article, the authors focus on the extensive discussion about the synthesis method of producing CNFs, some studies that combine CNFs and metal oxide, and some reports about using CNFs-metal oxide as a hybrid filler in the EMI shielding composites.

Abstract

The addition of garlic powder to gelatin from chicken claw waste was potentially developed as a natural preservative in food, especially for meat. Preparation of gelatin/garlic biocomposite was performed in three stages: synthesis of gelatin from chicken claw, garlic powder preparation as allicin source and preparation of biocomposite gelatin/garlic. The preparation of dry biocomposites was done by weighing the gelatin and garlic powder in weight ratio of 1 : 1 and 1 : 2 (w/w) in the total mass of 0.75 grams. For wet biocomposite preparation, the mixture of the powder was solved in 5 mL of lactic acid 2 %. Functional groups of gelatin, garlic and biocomposite were analyzed by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The antibacterial activity of biocomposite against Staphylococcus aureus were tested using disc diffusion method. This test was performed on garlic powder, solvent and gelatin/garlic biocomposites powder in the ratio of 1 : 1 and 1 : 2 in 2 % lactic acid solvent. The biocomposite with a weight ratio of gelatin : garlic of  1 : 1 had the optimum diameter of inhibition zone. The effectiveness of biocomposite gelatin/garlic as natural preservative applied in meat was also physically studied by organoleptic analysis. Organoleptic analysis through the hedonic test was conducted on the parameters of color, smell, and texture of gelatin/garlic biocomposites-coated meat. The results showed that the addition of garlic can increase the effectiveness of gelatin as a natural preservative of meat for four days stored in closed packaging at room temperature.

Abstract

Gelatin  has  been  successfully  extracted  from  chicken  clawsby  acid  hydrolysis method through four major stages of degreasing, demineralization, extraction and drying. The yield of  extracted  gelatin obtained  from wet chicken claws  was about 6.21  %  (w/w). The  effectiveness  of  gelatin  as  preservative  applied  in  beef  and  fish  was  physically, chemically and microbiologically  studied  by  organoleptic  analysis,  peroxide test, bacteria inhibition  test  and  number  calculation, respectively. Organoleptic analysis by hedonic  test shows  there  were significant  differences  for  color  and  texture  parameters  between  gelatin coated  samples  and control  samples  at  concentrations  of  1:1  (w/w).  Peroxide number analysis  by  iodometry  indicates  the  use  of  gelatin  in  the  preservation  of  meat  and  fish decreased the oxidation number. The result of inhibition test againts Staphylococcus aureus bacteria  shows  the  gelatin  concentration  of  20  %  provided  greatest  halo  zone  diameter (inhibitory  region)  as  19.44  ±  2.11  mm. The colony bacteria test shows the use of gelatin potentially  inhibited  the growth  of  bacteria  up to  75  %.  Overall,  the results  conclude  that gelatin  extracted from chicken claws  has the potential  activities  as a  natural preservative for beef and fish.

Abstract

Bentonite clay particles, measuring less than 2 μm, comprise stacked layers of tetrahedral and octahedral units in a 2:1 configuration (T-O-T). These negatively charged layers were subsequently neutralized with cations. However, the exchange or modification of the cation affects its structure and properties. This study investigates the effect of Fe-ion pillaring on the bentonite layer and the intercalation of Mg ions into Fe-pillared bentonite via ion exchange. The materials were characterized using Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (SEM–EDX) to observe surface morphology and elemental composition, Particle Size Analyzer (PSA) to observe average size and size distribution of particle, Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) to identify the active site and layer structure, and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) to determine their structural and compositional changes. The results confirm the pillaring treatment effect on a higher average particle size of 469.3 nm, with a polydispersity index (PDI) of 0.495, compared to natural bentonite (414.8 nm and 0.586 nm, respectively). Meanwhile, the intercalating treatment showed a lower average particle size of 433.4 nm and a PDI value of 0.613. FTIR identified the silanol and siloxane functional groups, as well as the aluminosilicate layer. Pillaring by Fe2O3 increased the basal spacing of bentonite from 13.6 Å to 17.35 Å, as indicated by the shift of characteristic bentonite peaks to lower 2θ angles. However, intercalation by MgO into Fe-pillared bentonite actually slightly decreased the basal spacing to 15.16 Å. Meanwhile, Mg intercalation occurred within the interlayer of the aluminosilicate layer, resulting in a peak shift toward higher 2θ angles and an increase in crystallinity to 58.924%, compared with Fe-pillared bentonite (45.376%). This phenomenon is likely related to the presence of the Mg metal intercalant, which has basic properties and can attract the aluminosilicate sheets.

Abstract

Ecoprint is an eco-friendly textile dyeing technique whose color quality is strongly influenced by mordanting and fixation processes. However, inconsistent mordant–fixative systems often result in unstable color intensity and poor standardization. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of different mordant and fixative combinations on the color characteristics of ecoprint fabrics dyed with indigo (Indigofera tinctoria), sappanwood (Caesalpinia sappan), and tannin extracts. Cotton fabrics were treated with either conventional mordant or color mordant, followed by fixation using vinegar, bone lime, lime, clear ferrous sulphate, or ferrous sulphate. Color properties were analyzed using UV-Vis spectroscopy (200-800 nm) and RGB evaluation. Iron-containing mordant systems significantly enhanced absorbance intensity in the visible region. It reduced the RGB lightness values, indicating deeper, more stable colors. Indigo showed maximum absorption at 647-672 nm, with the darkest blue obtained with the color mordant combined with ferrous sulphate fixation. Sappanwood showed maximum absorbance in the 482-491 nm range, under iron-assisted treatments. Tannin dyeing produced the most pronounced darkening effect due to tannin–iron complex formation. Overall, iron-assisted mordant–fixative systems under controlled pH conditions provided the most optimal and reproducible color performance, offering a scientific basis for standardizing the ecoprint process in sustainable textile production.

Abstract

Kajian struktur dan degradasi termal pada membran hibrida poliviniliden fluorida (PVDF)/lempung bentonit (BNT) telah dilakukan. Penelitian ini bertujuan mengetahui pengaruh penambahan BNT terhadap pembentukan fasa PVDF dan sifat termalnya. Membran hibrida PVDF/lempung BNT dibuat dengan metode inversi fasa. Membran yang dihasilkan dikarakterisasi dengan attenuated total reflectance fourier transform infrared (ATR-FTIR), x-ray diffraction (XRD), dan differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Hasil penelitian menunjukkan membran PVDF/BNT memiliki struktur polimorf PVDF fasa α dan β yang terkonfirmasi dari data FTIR dan XRD. Data DSC menunjukkan penurunan nilai titik leleh (Tm) dengan penambahan BNT, dan dengan rentang suhu pelelehan yang lebih kecil. Kristalisasi PVDF terjadi secara isothermal dan adanya BNT menghasilkan titik kristalisasi (Tc) pada suhu yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan membran PVDF murni. Analisis termal dengan DSC memberikan informasi komprehensif pelelehan dan kristalisasi dari polimorf PVDF pada matriks membran.Effect of Bentonite toward Polymorph Phase Formation and Thermal Properties of Polyvinylidene Fluoride/Bentonite Hybrid Membranes. The study of the structure and thermal properties of PVDF/bentonite (BNT) hybrid membranes has been carried out. This study aims to determine the effect of BNT addition on the phase formation and thermal properties of the PVDF. In this study, PVDF/BNT hybrid membranes were prepared through the phase inversion method. The resulting membrane was characterized by Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier Transform Infrared (ATR-FTIR), x-ray diffraction (XRD), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results showed that the PVDF/BNT membrane has a PVDF polymorph structure with α and β phases confirmed by FTIR and XRD data. The DSC data showed that the addition of BNT decrease of the melting point (Tm) and with a smaller melting temperature range. PVDF polymorph crystallization occurs isothermally and the presence of BNT produces a crystallization point (Tc) at a higher temperature than pristine PVDF membrane. Thermal analysis with DSC provides comprehensive information on melting and crystallization of PVDF polymorphs in the membrane matrix.

Abstract

Synthetic nanoparticles are the process of making particles with a size of less than 100 nm and changing the properties of the material so that it can be improved to improve the usability of new products. One method that can be used is the arc discharge method in water, which is a synthetic method of nanoparticles, which is very simple because it does not require complicated equipment. This study uses graphene as an electrode, which is then immersed in water and mounted horizontally. Current and voltage monitoring is carried out during the arc discharge process using a Hall-based current sensor and the voltage is measured directly between the two electrodes. Variations in input current of 10A, 40A, 70A, and 100A affect the arc formed, current and voltage, and ionization energy. Monitoring with OES is also carried out to determine the shape of the plasma, and the wavelength when the arc occurs. The results obtained that the current has more effective and optimal results in synthesizing nanoparticles.
