Abstract

The aim of this research was to determine the properties of the PB 260 clone rubber using the Averrhoa type coagulant. The natural coagulants used in this study were Averrhoa bilimbi and Averrhoa carambola. The latex used was 150 ml of PB 260 clone rubber with a concentration of 100% natural coagulant of 75 ml and 2% formic acid. The rubber properties that were tested were Po, PRI, DRC, ash content, dirt content, volatile matter content and Mooney viscosity. This research also uses a special treatment in the form of centrifugation speed. The higher the centrifugation speed, the higher the pH value of the natural coagulant and the lower the H+ ion value, which accelerates the coagulation time of the latex. In natural coagulant extract, the highest values of Po, PRI, DRC, ash content, dirt content and Mooney viscosity were obtained at 0 rpm for Averrhoa bilimbi extract with values of 40%, 94.17%, 32.83%, 0, 32%, 0.038% and 77 MU. Meanwhile, in the test for volatile matter content, the highest value was found in Averrhoa carambola at 5000 rpm with a value of 0.23%.

Abstract

Rubber is one of the most potential and abundant biological natural resources in Indonesia. This research was conducted to determine the content of compounds contained in rubber after coagulation by means of thermal coagulants. There are 2 (two) thermal coagulants used, traditional using firewood and modern using a laboratory oven. Variations in the weight of the latex used were 0.5 kg, 0.75 kg, 1 kg, 1.25 kg and 1.5 kg. Then the results of the thermal coagulant were subjected to the Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) test to see the compound content contained in the rubber. The results of the FTIR test on traditional thermal coagulants at high and medium heat and modern thermal coagulants in the oven showed the typical functional groups of rubber, namely the presence of C-H, C=C and C-C carbon bonds.
