PENGARUH PERLAKUAN AWAL PARTIKEL TERHADAP SERANGAN RAYAP TANAH PADA PAPAN PARTIKEL DARI LIMBAH BATANG KELAPA SAWIT

Abstract: The utilization of  oil palm trunk  could be used  as raw material for particleboard. It  was not only increased  the added value, but also used as substitution of wood.  The purpose of this research  evaluated  the resistance of particleboard from waste  of oil palm trunk on  subterranean  termites attack.  The variation of particle pretreatment were dont by soaking the particle in hot water (1,2 and 3 hours) and in cold water (24, 48 and 72 hours .) Particleboard were made from oil palm trunk using isocyanate of 7%, with size 30 x 30 x 1 cm and density target of 0,70 gr/cm3. The evaluation of the samples were done by grave yard test along 100 days  for resistance of particleboard on   subterranean termites. The result showed that  percentages of   particleboard weight loss to subterranean termites were 19,99-63,92%. Based on subterranean termites attack, the particleboard made from oil palm trunk was classified as moderate to very destroy.
