PENGARUH PEMAKAIAN SERBUK JERAMI IR 64 SEBAGAI FILLER KOMPOSIT UPRs TERHADAP KEKUATAN TARIK DITINJAU DARI VARIASI FRAKSI BERAT
Abstract: The aim of this
research is to investigate the effect of rice straw weight fraction on tensile
strength of rice straw filled Unsaturated Polyester Resins composites. The
research composites used Unsaturated Polyester 157 BQTN-EX as the matrices and
rice straw IR64 as the filler. The rice straw is sizing in 20 meshes and mixed
with matrices by hand lay up method for it making. And mad at several weigth
fractions (0%, 2.5 %, 5%, 7.5 % and 10 %).
The experiment result
conclusions, such as
the tensile strength properties have decreasing values as
long as the increasing weight fraction. The decreasing of tensile strength
properties is caused by the wax and silica composition on the rice straw that
make poor bonding strength between filler and matrices.
