KUALITAS PAPAN PARTIKEL DARI CAMPURAN AMPAS TEBU DAN PARTIKEL MAHONI DENGAN BERBAGAI VARIASI KADAR PEREKAT PHENOL FORMALDEHIDA
ABSTRACT: The purpose of this
study was to evaluate the effect of variations in the composition of bagasse
and mahogany’s particle with phenol formaldehyde adhesive variation levels on
quality particle board also to determine the best treatment. The dimension of
sample test was 25x25x1 cm with a density target of 0.7 g/cm3. The composition
between bagasse and mahogany’s particle were 60:40, 70:30, and 80:20. While for
the PF adhesive level were 10%, 12.5%, and 15%. The results showed that density, moisture content, water absorption
for 2 hours and 24hours, thickness swelling for 2 hours and 24 hours, MOE, MOR,
and IB were 0.57-0.64 g/cm3, 8.40-12.64%, 29.44-91.41% and 55.50-123.28%,
5.68-18.33% and10.26-32.34%, 3893-9475 kg/cm2, 51.88-106.23 kg/cm2, and
0.49-0.71 kg/cm2. Statistical analysis in this research used factorial
randomized completed design and the results were compared with JIS A 5908-2003
standard. The result showed that some of the test on particle board not
fulfilled the standard, such as internal bond and MOE. However, all of density
and moisture content had fulfilled the standard. Thickness swelling test on
particle board composition of 80:20 and adhesive content of 15% had fulfilled
standard. MOR test on particle board composition of 80:20 and adhesive content
of 10% as well as composition of 60:40 and adhesive content of 12,5% had
fulfilled standard. The best result of treatment from this research was a
partcle board made from composition of 80:20 and 10% levels of PF adhesive.
