DESAIN DAN MANUFAKTUR GREEN-COMPOSITE AMPAS TEBU–LEM PUTIH SEBAGAI BAHAN PAPAN PARTIKEL DAN BERKARAKTERISTIK HAMBAT PANAS
Abstract: The use
of sugarcane bagasse
for providing avaibility
of raw material
have been attracting attention. The benefits
using natural fibre
such as sugarcane bagasse
are eco-friendly, low
cost considerations because widespread avaibility, high
stiffness, better thermal
stability, and biodegradability. Sugarcane bagasse and white
glue (polyvinyl acetate, PVAc) have been shown to possess
the ability of
being applied as
raw material for
manufacturing of green composite
panel at 10mm thickness (fixed variable) by three mesh sizes (20,30 dan 40)
with ratio of
the composition 95:5,
90:10 and 85:15%. The specimen
have been emphasized at 3:2 and 2:1. This research was conducted to investigate
possibility of manufacturing
green composite panel
that its characteristic resistance
to the thermal
conductivity. This green
composite speciments were tested
for thermal conductivity
test according to
ASTM E-1225. The
results revealed that
optimum design for
green composite panel obtained that
emphasis at 2:1,
filtered by mesh
size 20, ratio
composition sugarcane
bagasse 85% and
PVAc 15. The
test result shown
that panel has thermal
conductivity resistance value
(R) 17,089 °C/W.
Thus, it can be
concluded that green composite panel can successfully be manufactured from sugarcane bagasse
and white glue
(PVAc)as the main
source of raw materials.
