Abstract

This research is a study and development of an e-module project to strengthen the Pancasila student profile phase E on the theme of local wisdom in the Bengkulu area. This research aims to determine the feasibility level of the e-module and the students' responses to the developed project e-module. The development of this e-module uses the ADDIE development model (Analyze, Design, Develop, and Evaluation), which is limited only to the Develop stage. The research was conducted from May to July at SMAN 1 Kota Bengkulu. The subjects of the research were 36 tenth-grade students of class X.B at SMAN 1 Kota Bengkulu. The instruments in this research were interview sheets, validation sheets, and student response questionnaires. The results of this study showed that (1) the feasibility level of the e-module had a score of 93.6% with a category of very feasible, and (2) the student response test results to the e-module obtained a score of 89.0% with a category of very good. This means that the e-module project to strengthen the Pancasila student profile phase E on the theme of local wisdom in the Bengkulu area is suitable for use.

Abstract

This study aim is to synthesize and characterize metal organic frameworks La-NDC and determine the electronic response to borax (H3BO3) compounds. The method used to synthesize La-NDC MOFs is the solvothermal method with dimethylacetamide (DMA) as solvent. The research was conducted in the learning laboratory of FKIP UNIB and the Basic Science laboratory of FMIPA UNIB from April to June 2022. The synthesis stages of La-NDC MOFs consisted of six stages, namely preparation, mixing, heating and cooling, washing, drying and weighing. Yield results obtained as much as 70.77% and 63.85%. The results showed that La-NDC MOFs have been synthesized with a slightly yellowish white crystalline form. Characterization of La-NDC MOFs was carried out using FTIR, SEM and XRD methods. The results of FTIR characterization showed that Lanthanum metal ions had coordinated with NDC ligands to form a network of MOFs, XRD characterization results showed that La-NDC MOFs had good crystallinity and SEM characterization results showed that the morphology of La-NDC MOFs resembled irregular rocks with diameters ranging from 73 - 581 m. The analytes used for the response test were borax, benzene, toluene and formalin. The electronic response test of La-NDC MOFs was carried out using a UV-Vis spectrophotometer at a wavelength range of 200-800 nm. The results of the electronic response test on the sample of MOFs with borax show that La-NDC MOFs have no potential as sensors because they do not show specific electronic behavior towards borax

Abstract

Chemical glass bottle waste can be used to make silica gel due to its high content of SiO2 composition. The aim of this research is to obtain silica which is extracted from chemical waste from glass chemical bottles and synthesized using the sol gel method. Chemical glass bottle waste can be extracted by alkali fusion. The mass ratio of glass powder: NaOH is 1:3. The calcination process is carried out at 800°C within 4 hours to obtain sodium silicate. Sodium silicate was then synthesized using the sol gel method by reacting with HCl to form a white gel. The gel was then left for 18 hours, then filtered. The resulting precipitate was washed until it reached pH 7. The drying process was in an oven at 80°C for 12 hours. The final product is white silica gel which was characterized using FTIR and XRD. FTIR was used to obtain typical absorption bands, such as the siloxane ring 447.5 cm-1, as well as the symmetric and asymmetric Si-O-Si stretching vibrations, namely 702.11 cm-1 and 1022.31 cm-1 , respectively. The XRD results produced a characteristic peak at 2 theta around 22-25°, which means that the silica gel structure obtained in this study has amorphous properties.  Keywords: Synthesis; silica gel; chemical glass bottle waste

Abstract

Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a widely studied semiconductor material due to its broad range of applications. ZnO is known for its stability and can be synthesized using various methods. One of the approaches employed in this study is the co-precipitation method with a green synthesis approach. The green synthesis principle applied in this research involves minimizing the use of synthetic chemicals by substituting them with natural materials. Mango leaves (Mangifera sp.), which are readily available in the environment, contain secondary metabolites which can act as the capping agents in synthesis ZnO nanoparticle. The role of the capping agent is to limit particle interactions, thereby reducing agglomeration. ZnO synthesis was carried out at a low temperature by mixing Zn²⁺ precursor, NaOH, and mangifera sp. leaf extract, followed by stirring. The heating process was conducted at 130°C for 4 hours. The synthesized material was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-DRS, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The characterization results confirmed that the ZnO sample exhibited a hexagonal wurtzite crystal structure, a nanoflower morphology, and a band gap energy of 3.26 eV. Keywords: ZnO; nanoparticles; photocatalyst; congo red; co-precipitation.
