Uji Keterawetan Kayu Karet (Hevea Brasiliensis Muell. Arg) Menggunakan Bahan Pengawet Biocide
Rubber wood (Hevea brasiliensis, Muell Arg) belongs to the Euphorbiaceae
family. is wood that is susceptible to fungal attack, especially blue fungus (blue
stain). The use of wood preservatives is the most effective way to improve the
quality of wood. wood preservation is an understanding that talks about the
amount of preservative that seeps into wood. This study aims to determine the
durability of rubber wood as measured by three measures of absorption, retention
and penetration. The research method was carried out by cold immersion with a
preservative used was Biocide-TCMBT / MBT with a dosage of preservative used
0,25%, 0,50%, 0,75% and 1% with a number of sample repetitions five times with
The results of the absorption test that have been carried out the absorption value
of immersion for 36 hours have a higher value than the absorption value of
immersion for 5 minutes, 12 hours and 24 hours in all variations of the dosage of
preservatives. The results of retention testing that have been carried out show that
the retention value of rubber wood samples with a preservative dose of 0,25 %,
0,50 %, 0,75 % and 1% does not meet the retention standard, namely: 8kg / m³
(SNI 03-5010.1, 1999). The results of the penetration test that have been carried
out show that the penetration value of rubber wood samples with a preservative
dose of 0,25 %, 0,50 %, 0,75 % and 1% does not meet the penetration standard,
namely: 5mm (SNI 03-5010.1, 1999).
