Pengaruh Penambahan Graphene Oxide Terhadap Sifat Bioplastik Berbasis Pati Singkong
Industrial developments coupled with an increase in the number of residents led to the creation of several problems such as the accumulation of plastic waste in large quantities .. Conventional plastics are still often used today derived from synthetic polymer materials that are difficult to be recycled and degraded by microorganisms. Bioplastic is one solution to this problem. One of the materials that have the potential to be used as raw material is cassava because it has a high starch content. However, starch has a weakness that is still low mechanical properties. The general purpose of this research is to study the effect of adding graphene oxide and stirring time to mechanical properties (tensile strenght, elongation, modulus young), water uptake, biodegradation and morphology of cassava starch based bioplastic. Bioplastic was synthesized by intercalation method of solution between starch, water, filler, and plasticizer with variation of graphene oxide concentration of 5% v / v, 10% v / v., 15% v / v and 30 minute and 60 minute stirring time variation. The results of the analysis showed that the treatment with the addition of filler graphene oxide and the variation of stirring time contributed to the resulting bioplastic mechanical properties. Bioplastic with the best characteristic was obtained by adding 15% graphene oxide and 60 minutes stirring time with tensile strength 3,92 Mpa, elongation 13,216%, modulus young 29,66 Mpa with water resistance 27,42% and within 1 week degraded 50 , 83%.
