Karakterisasi Sifat Fisik, Mekanik, Dan Biologi Bambusa Vulgaris Schrad, Dendrocalamus Asper Backer Dan Gigantochloa Pruriens Widjaja Asal Kabupaten Kampar Dengan Beberapa Perlakuan Perendaman
The decrease in the amount of forest wood causes the need for another alternative, namely bamboo. Bamboo is able to grow quickly and elastically but is vulnerable to attack by intruding organisms. This study aims to determine the mechanical, physical, and biological properties of Bambusa vulgaris, Dendrocalamus asper, and Gigantochloa pruriens from Kampar Regency as an alternative to wood, find out the best type of solvent that has the potential to inhibit disturbing organisms, obtain and recommend the best type of bamboo as a substitute for wood in the future. The sample was soaked using three solutions, namely tap water, peat water, and boron solution. The testing phase consists of flexural strength testing with Modulus of Rupture and Modulus of Elasticity, as well as testing resistance to fungal and termite attacks. Data analysis using Ms. Office Excel 2010 and SPSS program software. Bamboo soaking causes bamboo to have a darker and heavier color and pungent odor. The results of MOR and MOE testing show Dendrocalamus asper is the type of bamboo that has the highest value. The test result of resistance to attack by disturbing organisms is that boron-soaked bamboo has the best average resistance. The conclusion of this study is that Dendrocalamus asper has the characteristics of mechanical and physical properties with the highest MOR and MOE values, has biological properties that are able to survive fungal and termite attacks and has the potential to replace wood. Boron solution is able to prevent the attack of intruding organisms.
