Abstract

The increasing consumption of local clam shells which contain high nutritional value in society has resulted in an increase in waste sea shells in areas around the coast of Bengkulu Province. The high calcium content in lokan clam shells attracts researchers to study the physical and mechanical properties of epoxy resin composites reinforced lokan clam shell powder. This research aims to investigate the effect of variations in the volume fraction of lokan clam shell powder and the mold loading on the physical and mechanical properties of composites reinforced lokan clam shell powder. The process of manufacturing shell powder is carried out by heating at a temperature of 900oC for 6 hours. Variations in the volume fraction of lokan clam shell powder consist of 30, 50, 70%. Meanwhile, the mold loading was varied by 0, 500 N, and 1 kN. The manufacturing process uses hand lay-up techniques. Physical and mechanical tests on composites include water absorption tests, density, tensile tests and impact tests. The results of the research show that the powder volume fraction and mold loading influence the physical and mechanical properties of composites reinforced lokan clam shell powder. The best physical properties of composite were obtained at a powder volume fraction of 70% and a mold loading of 1 kN, namely with a density of 1.43 g/cm3. The best mechanical properties of composite were obtained at a volume fraction of 30% and a mold loading of 1 kN, namely with a tensile strength of 33.2 MPa and an impact toughness of 366.8 kJ/m2.

Abstract

Indonesia is an earthquake-prone country related to its geological position located in the Pacific ring of fire. Therefore, it is necessary to mitigate earthquake disasters so as not to cause much loss, both property and life. One of them is by introducing the walls of earthquake resistant composite house (RKTG) made from sandwich composites. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of matrix and skin thickness on the mechanical strength of sandwich composites with polyurethane cores.). Sandwich composites use variations of glassfiber reinforced polymer (GRP) and glassfiber reinforced concrete (GRC) skins and variations in skin thickness of 6 mm and 10 mm. The adhesive used is polyester resin with methyl ethyl ketone peroxide catalyst. The manufacturing process of making sandwich composites uses the hand lay-up technique with a sandwich composite thickness of 10 cm. The results showed that GRP skins have better mechanical properties than GRC skins. Skin thickness can also improve the mechanical properties of sandwich composites. The best mechanical strength was obtained in the GRP skin type with a skin thickness of 10 mm, namely a flexure strength of 1.63 MPa, a compressive strength of 10.7 MPa, and a tensile strength of 0.08 MPa.

Abstract

Several methods can be applied in composite manufacturing, including the vacuum infusion and filament winding methods. In order to apply this method in the manufacture of composites, it is necessary to know which produces composites with a good target ratio of fiber and resin, namely 60%/40%. The aim of this research is to compare the manufacturing methods that produce the distribution of fibers and resins that are close to the target. The composites in this study used a carbon tow reinforcement material with a matrix, namely araldite LY5052 epoxy resin and aradur 5052 CH hardener. In composite manufacturing, there are three stages, namely molding preparation, process manufacturing, and demolding. Then SEM photo observations were made on the specimen pieces from the composite results with three different locations. Of the two methods, vacuum infusion produces SEM photos with denser fiber distribution than filament winding and voids produced in the filament winding manufacturing method. The volume fraction of the test on the vacuum infusion sample with an average yield of 56.79% and 54.01% for filament winding.
