Pemanfaatan Selulosa Kulit Sagu Dalam Pembuatan Biodegradable Film Dari Pati Sagu Yang Dimodifikasi Kimia
ABSTRACT
Sago is one of the plants with high starch content and potentially to be used
for biodegradable film production. Biodegradable film from natural sago starch has
low mechanical properties and water resistance so it is necessary to modify the
starch with sodium tripolyphosphate as cross-linking agents. Biodegradable film
from modified sago starch still has low mechanical properties, so it is necessary to
add filler as reinforcer such as sago bark cellulose. The purpose of this study was
to obtain the best biodegradable film characteristics of chemically modified sago
starch with the addition of the amount of sago bark cellulose. This research was
carried out experimentally using a completely randomized design (CRD). The
treatment of this study was the addition of sago bark cellulose concentration,
namely SK1 (1% cellulose), SK2 (4% cellulose), SK3 (7% cellulose), and SK4
(10% cellulose) with four repetitions. The data obtained were analyzed using
analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results showed that the addition of sago bark
cellulose had a significant effect on the value of water absorption, water vapor
transmission rate, tensile strength, elongation and biodegradation from
biodegradable film produced. The biodegradable film with the best treatment is
SK3 (addition of 7% cellulose sago bark). SK3 had a water absorption value of
25.08%, water vapor transmission rate 13.23 g/m2/h, tensile strength 16.5 MPa,
elongation of 13.81% and biodegradation on day 3 of 23.63% and day 7 of 55.4%
