Abstract

Research on utilization of rind extracts of red dragon fruit (hylocereus costaricensis) as sensitizer for dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) has been conducted by reviewing influence of the concentration against the DSSC efficiency. Characterization on optical absorption at various concentrations and identification of functional groups, each using an UV-Vis spectrometer and Fourier transform infra red (FTIR), have done to the dye in the form of the extracts. The dye characterization result on optical absorption at various concentration shows that the optical absorption at range of wavelength 320-760 nm has the peak of absorbance tend to increase with increasing the concentration. Therefore the dye is capable to role as a sunlight absorber. Meanwhile, infra red absorption spectrum obtained from FTIR results indicate the presence of functional groups O-H, C=O, C=C, C-O, and C-H aromatic. Results of current-voltage characterization of DSSC show an increase in maximum power and efficiency with increasing concentration.Penelitian mengenai pemanfaatan ekstrak kulit buah naga merah (hylocereus costaricensis) sebagai penyensitif pada dye sensitized solar cell (DSSC) telah dilakukan dengan meninjau pengaruh konsentrasi ekstrak terhadap efisiensi DSSC. Terhadap dye berupa ekstrak kulit H. Costaricencis dilakukan pengujian serapan optik pada berbagai konsentrasi dan identifikasi gugus fungsi, masing-masing menggunakan spektrometer UV-Vis dan fourier transform infra red (FTIR). Hasil pengujian dye pada konsentrasi 100 %, 50 %, 33,33 %, 25%, dan 20% menunjukan serapan optik yang terjadi pada panjang gelombang 320-760 nm, memiliki puncak yang cenderung semakin tinggi seiring dengan peningkatan konsentrasi. Dye yang berasal dari ekstrak kulit H. Costaricensis ini mampu berperan sebagai sunlight absorber. Sementara itu, spektrum serapan infra red yang diperoleh dari hasil FTIR mengindikasikan adanya gugus fungsi O-H, C=O, C=C, C-O, dan C-H aromatik. Hasil karakterisasi arus-tegangan dari DSSC menunjukkan adanya peningkatan nilai daya maksimum dan efisiensi seiring peningkatan konsentrasi.

Abstract

The solid waste composite was successfully made. Preliminary, the composite was synthesized using polyurethane as binder mixed with the solid waste using simple mixing method and then hot-pressed at at pressure of 4 metric-tons and temperature of 100°C for 20 minutes. To enhance its strength, silica nanoparticles with varied content then were added in the polyurethane-solid waste mixture. From the compressive strength test, it was obtained that polyurethane-solid waste composite with solid waste volume fraction of 87.15% had optimum compressive strength of 160 MPa. Meanwhile, for silica addition with the fraction of 0.4975%, the compressive strength became 200 MPa, or increased 23% of that without nanosilica. The enhancement was also briefly confirmed from FTIR Spectroscopy where some polyurethane spectra shifted small due to silica addition, especially in amine and carbonyl groups as its active groups. The strength is better than of brick (80 MPa), shalestone (73 MPa), silstone (92 MPa) and other stones. From density measurement, the composite-produced has density about 0.7 g/cm3 that comparable to Jati (Tectona grandis) and Mahoni (Swietenia macrophylla) having densities about 0.8 g/cm3 and 0.7 g/cm3 respectively. Therefore, this composite is very adequate for building material application to compete the woods.  Komposit sampah sudah berhasil dibuat. Mula-mula, komposit disintesis dengan menggunakan poliuretan sebagai pengikat yang dicampur dengan sampah melalui metode pencamnpuran sederhana (simple mixing), kemudian dihot-press pada tekanan 4 metric ton dan suhu 100°C selama 20 menit. Untuk meningkatkan kekuatan mekaniknya, nanopartikel silica dengan berbagai komposisi ditambahkan dalam campuran poliuretan-sampah. Dengan menggunakan uji kekuatan tekan, didapatkan komposit poliuretan-sampah dengan fraksi volume sampah sebesar 87,15% memiliki kekuatan tekan sebesar 160 MPa. Selanjutnya, dengan penambahan silica sebesar 0,4975% (v/v) kekuatan tekan komposit menjadi 200 MPa, atau meningkat sebesar 23% dibandingkan komposit tanpa silica. Peningkatan ini juga dikonfirmasi melalui FTIR Spectroscopy yang menunjukkan adanya pergeseran kecil pada puncak spektra poliuretan akibat penambahan silica, utamanya pada gugus fungsi amina dan karbonil. Kekuatan mekanik komposit ini lebih baik daripada batu bata (80 MPa), batuan shale (73 MPa), batuan siltstone (92 MPa) dan beberapa jenis batuan yang lain. Dengan menggunakan uji kerapatan didapatkan komposit ini memiliki massa jenis 0,7 g/cm3, setara dengan kayu Jati (Tectona grandis) dan Mahoni (Swietenia macrophylla) yang memiliki massa jenis masing-masing 0,8 g/cm3 dan 0,7 g/cm3. Ini menunjukkan komposit yang dihasilkan sangat cocok untuk diaplikasikan sebagai bahan bangunan pengganti kayu.

Abstract

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) has been used as a research tool in many fields. In this study, the magnetic properties, especially anti-ferromagnetic properties of FeF3 materials were investigated. Zero-field custom-built NMR method was used to investigate the anti-ferromagnetic properties in the materials. Experiments have been carried out by varying the sample temperatures from 8 K to 220 K. Ordinary spin echo pulse sequence 90⁰RF–τ–180⁰RF were used. Using Fast Fourier Transform, the signals in NMR spectrum were analyzed and the peak showed the resonance frequency. The result showed that resonance frequencies decrease with increasing in temperature. The frequency of the spectrum was around 85.41 MHz in the zero-temperature limit, and this corresponds with Fe hyperfine field at zero-temperature limit was 2.14 T. The temperature dependence of the local magnetization does not fit T2 Bloch’s Law very well. Instead, it fits the exponential form having an energy gap in the dispersion relation of the spin wave. It is obtained from the result that FeF3 is antiferromagnetic materials with energy gap of 11.466 meV and anisotropy energy of 1.045 meV.Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) telah banyak digunakan sebagai “research tool” pada berbagai bidang kajian di fisika. Pada studi ini, akan dilakukan eksperimen untuk menguji sifat magnetik, khususnya antiferromagnetik pada material FeF3. Telah dilakukan eksperimen dengan memvariasikan temperatur pada sampel dari 8 K hingga 220 K. Pulse sequence yang digunakan adalah 90⁰RF–τ–180⁰RF. Dengan memanfaatkan Fast Fourier Transform, sinyal echo ini dapat dianalisis dalam bentuk spektrum NMR dengan puncak spektrum menunjukkan frekuensi resonansinya. Diperoleh bahwa frekuensi resonansi akan menurun seiring dengan kenaikan temperatur. Posisi frekuensi pada temperatur 0 K adalah sebesar 85,41 MHz, hal ini memperlihatkan bahwa medan hyperfine dari Fe sebesar 2,14 T pada temperatur 0 K. Kurva antara frekuensi resonansi dengan temperatur menunjukkan bahwa magnetisasi tidak tepat sebanding dengan hukum Bloch T2 namun lebih cocok dengan bentuk persamaan eksponensial yang berkaitan dengan suatu gap energi yang berasal dari dispersi spin wave. Hal ini menguatkan bahwa bahan FeF3 merupakan bahan yang bersifat antiferromagnetik, namun bukan antiferromagnetik sederhana. Berdasarkan fitting, diperoleh gap energi sebesar 11,466 meV dan energi anisotropi sebesar 1,045 meV.
