SIFAT FISIS DAN MEKANIS BATANG KELAPA SAWIT (ELAEIS GUINEENSIS JACQ) ASAL KEBUN AEK PANCUR-SUMATERA UTARA
ABSTRACT: The objective of
this research was to analyze the physical and mechanical properties of palm oil
trunk. The result showed that in term of
the vertical direction the lower part of stem had better physical (density, moisture
content and shrinkage) and mechanical (modulus of elasticity, modulus of
rupture, hardness, compressive and tensile strength parallel to grain)
properties compared with medium and upper end part. In the horizontal direction the edge part of
trunk had better physical and mechanical properties than medium and center
part.
Keywords: horizontal
direction, palm oil stem, physical pro-perties, mechanical properties, vertical
direction
