Abstract

The bio-foam in this study was made from biopolymers in the form of cassava starch, cellulose from corn stalks, and a binder polymer in the form of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The bio-foam was molded using the thermo pressing method at T = 150 °C and pressed for t = 3 minutes. Ag+ ions were added as an initial review of the physics properties of the bio-foam to serve as a reference for future antibacterial bio-foam manufacturing. Ag+ ions were produced using the electrolysis method from AgBr rods with an electric voltage of 15 volts. Then, the electrolyzed solution containing Ag+ ions was varied in concentration (12 ppm, 17 ppm, 22 ppm, 27 ppm). The ions were then coated on the bio-foam using the dip coating method and dried at room temperature. Along with the increase in the concentration of the Ag+ ion solution coated on the bio-foam, there was an increase in the bio-foam crystallinity with test values of 34.4%, 40.8%, 41.2%, and 42.6%, respectively. Based on these data, the crystallinity value of the bio-foam does not change significantly. It also aligns with the density test values, which tend to be constant with an average test value of 0.322 g/cm³. Furthermore, the concentration of the solution containing Ag+ ions did not influence the bio-foam's porosity properties, where the four samples tended to remain with an average value of 5.9%.

Abstract

Telah dilakukan penelitian biofaom menggunakan biopolimer alam berupa pati singkong, selulosa dari serat jagung, dan polivinil Alkohol (PVA). Pembuatan biofoam tersebut dicetak menggunakan metode thermopressing dengan T=150 OC dan ditekan t = 3 menit. Untuk meningkatkan kualitas produk, ditambahkanlah bahan aditif berupa ion Ag+ yang dapat memberikan sifat antibakteri biofoam. Ion Ag+ diproduksi dengan menggunakan metode elektrolisis dari batang AgBr  menggunakan tegangan listrik 15 Volt. Kemudian, larutan yang mengandung ion Ag+  hasil elektrolisis divarisasikan konsentrasi (12 ppm, 17 ppm, 22 ppm, 27 ppm). Ion tersebut kemudian dilapiskan ke dalam produk biofoam menggunakan metode dip coating, lalu dikeringkan pada suhu ruangan. Berdasarkan hasil karakterisasi FTIR,  gugus fungsi O-H dan N-H bending diduga tempat menempelnya ion Ag+ pada biofoam. Hal ini dikarenakan tingginya afinitas gugus tersebut serta perbedaan nilai keelektronegatifan pada atom O dan N. Berdasarkan hasil uji antibakteri bakteri Bacillus sp didapatkanlah nilai diameter zona hambat pengujian pada keempat sampel berturut-turut 1,88 mm, 2,88 mm, 5,55 mm, dan 7,44 mm. Namun, hasil berbeda didapatkan pada pengujian bakteri Escherchia coli dengan tidak munculnya zona hambat yang dihasilkan. Kemudian, penambahan ion Ag+ pada biofoam tidak mempengaruhi pengujian daya serap air karena nilai pengujian cendrung tetap dengan rata-rata pengujian daya serap air mecapai 18,37%.
