PENGARUH PERSENTASE PARTIKEL PELEPAH KELAPA SAWIT (Elaeis guineensis Jack) DAN KULIT DURIAN (Durio Zibethinus Murr) TERHADAP SIFAT FISIKA DAN MEKANIKA PAPAN SEMEN PARTIKEL
Abstract: Problem that often
occur in society and always get serious attention from the local government is
the problem of waste both organic and inorganic waste. One of this wastes the skin of the durian and
the stem of oil palm. In order to reduce environmental pollution caused by
waste, it is necessary for utilization of waste to be processed into useful
products and high value, one of which is as raw material of cement particle
board. What are the characteristics of physics and mechanics of cement particle
board produced and the factors that can influence it need to be investigated
first. The purpose of this research is to investigate the influence of the
percentage of material that is mixed (stem of palm oil, durian skins and blend
the two materials) to the physical properties (density, water content, water
absorption and thickness development)
and mechanical (bending strength, strength of fracture, thickness
reduction due pressure) of cement particle board. Benefits of this research is to help the
government solve organic waste. The results showed that the factor addition of
particles and the amount of cement does not affect the physical properties and
mechanics of cement particle board that produces, except to the strength
broken.
Key Words: cement particle board,
stem of palm oil, skin of durio
