PENGARUH WAKTU DAN JENIS ABSORBEN PADA PROSES ENFLEURASIBUNGA MELATI (JASMINUM SAMBAC)
ABSTRACT: Jasmine oil is an
oil produced from the flowers jasmine (Jasmine Sambac). In this study, using the
methods enfleurage and vacuum distillation. The purpose of this experiment is
taking jasmine oil enfleurasi method, Assessing the impact of type of adsorbent
used in the process enfleurasi and Assessing the impact of time on the
enfleurasi. Benefits of this experiment was to determine the type of good
absorben and optimal time enfleurasi process to obtain a high yield. Jasmine
oil is known as one of the allround flavouring agent because it has a
distinctive aroma, attractive and widely used in the cosmetic industry for
perfumes such as soaps, perfumes. In this study there are two kinds of
variables, that is remain variable and changed variable. For remain variables
consist of: distillation 0.5 atm pressure, temperature 50oC, and a distillation
time of 3 hours. For changed variable include the time of enfleurage 2, 4, 6,
8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 day and type of absorbent form of petroleum jelly and
beef tallow. Jasmine is obtained from Pemalang, Central Java. The observations
made are the the determination, organoleptic testing, refractive index and
density of jasmine oil. The results of this study, for the absorbent vaseline
the highest yield of 2.07% at 20 days and enfleurasi time for absorbent beef
tallowproduce the highest yield of 1.9956% at the time of enfleurasi 20 days.
According organoleptic color of jasmine oil is yellow and distinctive smell of
jasmine. Density obtained ranged from 0.835 ml / g to 0.915 ml / g. Refractive
index obtained from the study ranged between 1.462 to 1.482.
