Potensi Pemanfaatan Pati Biji Nangka Dengan Penambahan Selulosa Jerami Padi Terhadap Kualitas Plastik Biodegradable
ABSTRACT
Biodegradable plastic is an environmentally friendly plastic, most of the components come from renewable raw materials. Biodegradable plastic can be made from starch derived from waste such as jackfruit seeds. Biodegradable plastics made only from starch have poor physical and mechanical properties, so it is necessary to add reinforcement such as cellulose. One of the wastes that contains cellulose is rice straw waste. The aim of this study was to obtain the best ratio of jackfruit seed starch and rice straw cellulose to the physical and mechanical properties of biodegradable plastic. This research was carried out experimentally using a Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with five treatments, namely the ratio of starch and cellulose PS1 (1:0,3), PS2 (1:0,4), PS3 (1:0,5), PS4 (1:0,6) and PS5 (1:0,7) with three repetitions, 15 experimental units were obtained. The data obtained was analyzed statistically using analysis of variance (ANOVA). If Fcount ≥ Ftable data is obtained, it will be continued with the Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT) at the 5% level. The results showed that the addition of rice straw cellulose had a significant effect on the value of water absorption, water vapor transfer rate, tensile strength, elongation and biodegradation of the resulting biodegradable plastic. The biodegradable plastic with the best treatment was PS5 (starch ratio 1:0.7 cellulose). PS5 treatment with a water absorption rate of 34,81%, water vapor transfer rate of 0,1912 (g/m2/hour), tensile strength of 20,21 MPa, elongation of 5,33% and biodegradation for 6 days.
