KARAKTERISTIK PAPAN KOMPOSIT DARI SERAT SABUT KELAPA DAN PLASTIK POLIPROPILENA DAUR ULANG BERLAPIS ANYAMAN BAMBU
ABSTRACT: The objective of
this research is to evaluate the characteristic of composite board made from coconut fibre,
recycled polypropylene (RPP), and bamboo matting layers. The board samples
target density was 0,70 g/cm3. The board construction type was core type
composite board (three layers). Coconut
fiber and RPP were used as core, and bamboo matting was used as face and back
layers. RPP was used 50% based on coconut fiber oven dry weight. The bamboo
sheet wide is 1 cm and 2 cm, with and without bark. The bamboo matting layers
were used in slope (45˚) and perpendicular (0/90˚) orientation to length of the
board. The research results showed that utilization of bamboo matting layers
increase the mechanical properties of board. All of composite board made from
coir, RPP, and bamboo matting layers fulfill
the JIS A 5908 standard in density, thickness swelling after 24 hours of
water immersions, and screw holding power. Only composite boards with bamboo
matting layers with bark, sheet wide 1 cm, and perpendicular orientation to
length of the board fulfill JIS A 5908 1994 standard for veneered particleboard
in MOE. However, application of bamboo
matting layers without bark is adviced better because more efficient in the raw
material using.
