Limbah nata de coco merupakan nata yang tidak dapat dijadikan sebagai produk setelah proses sortasi sehingga menghasilkan limbah padat dan jarang dimanfaatkan. Kandungan selulosa pada limbah padat nata de coco sebesar 42,57%. Tujuan penelitian ini membuat plastik biodegradable dengan hasil limbah nata de coco dengan penambahan plasticizer. Metode yang digunakan pada pembuatan plastik biodegradable ini adalah metode inversi fasa dengan variasi berat selulosa 2%; 2,5%; dan 3% (b/v), variasi volume gliserol sebesar 2%, 3%, dan 5% (v/v), dan penambahan kitosan sebagai penguat. Karakteristik pastik biodegradable diuji menggunakan UTM (Universal Testing Machine) dan FTIR (Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy). Plastik biodegradable yang dihasilkan dari berbagai perbandingan berat selulosa dan volume gliserol memiliki karakteristik yang berbeda-beda. Plastik biodegradable dengan karakteristik optimal memiliki nilai kuat tarik optimal sebesar 4,34 MPa, nilai elongasi optimal sebesar 4,44% dan nilai ketahanan air optimal sebesar 65,20%. Pada analisis gugus fungsi menggunakan FTIR menunjukkan tidak ditemukan adanya gugus fungsi baru dalam plastik biodegradable selain gugus fungsi bahan pembentuknya. Pada uji biodegradabilitas, diperoleh nilai biodegradabilitas sebesar 80% – 100% setelah ditimbun di dalam tanah selama 14 hari.Nata de coco waste is nata that cannot be used as a product after the sorting process so that it produces solid waste and is rarely utilized. The cellulose content in nata de coco solid waste is 42.57%, the purpose of this study is to make biodegradable plastic with the results of nata de coco waste by adding plasticizers. The method used in the manufacture of biodegradable plastics is the phase inversion method with cellulose weight variation; 2%; 2.5%; and 3% (w / v), variations in the volume of glycerol by 2%, 3%, and 5% (v/v), and the addition of chitosan as an amplifier. The biodegradable plastic characteristics were tested using UTM (Universal Testing Machine) and FTIR (Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy). Biodegradable plastics that are produced from various weight cellulose and glycerol volume ratios have different characteristics. Biodegradable plastic with optimal characteristics has an optimal tensile strength value of 4.34 MPa, optimal elongation value of 4.44% and an optimal water resistance value of 65.20%. In the analysis of functional groups (FTIR) no new functional groups were found in biodegradable plastics in addition to the functional groups forming materials. In the biodegradability test, a biodegradability value of 80% - 100% is obtained after being buried in the ground for 14 days.

This study was conducted to investigate the efficiency of Minimum Quantity Lubrication (MQL) technique by using Modified Jatropha Oil (MJO) bio-based lubricant with the presence of 10% Ammonium Ionic Liquid (MJO+AIL10%) and 1% Phosphonium Ionic Liquid (MJO+PIL1%) additives respectively at various temperature of 200 °C, 300 °C and 400 °C heat treatment to determine the ability to exhibit corrosion and wear throughout the process. Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis revealed prominent peaks of functional groups in these bio-lubricants; esters (C-O) and (C=O), alkanes (C-H), hydroxide (O-H), and nitrile groups deposited on the cutting tool surface. Initially, nitrile group is detected on cutting tool surface without lubricants at 2200 to 2300 absorption band reduced to lower intensity and most likely concealed by MJO+AIL10% compared to MJO+PIL1% where the nitrile group remains reflected in FTIR spectrum. In this work, it is proved that MJO+AIL10% has higher viscosity as compared to MJO+PIL1%. in the context of functional groups and supported the previous study on MJO+AIL10% as corrosion inhibitor.

Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) spectroscopy detects functional groups such as vibrational bands like N-H, O-H, C-H, C = O (ester, amine, ketone, aldehyde), C = C, C = N (vibrational modes of a tetrapyrrole ring) and simply C = N. The FTIR of these bands is fundamental to the investigation of the effect of biochar (BC) treatment on structural changes in the chlorophyll molecules of both plants that were tested. For this, dried leaf of Spinacia oleracia (spinach) and Trigonella corniculata (fenugreek) were selected for FTIR spectral study of chlorophyll associated functional groups. The study’s primary goal was to investigate the silent features of infrared (IR) spectra of dried leave samples. The data obtained from the current study also shows that leaf chlorophyll can mask or suppress other molecules’ FITR bands, including proteins. In addition, the C = O bands with Mg and the C9 ketonic group of chlorophyll are observed as peaks at1600 (0%BC), 1650 (3%BC) and 1640, or near to1700 (5%BC) in spinach samples. In fenugreek, additional effects are observed in the FTIR spectra of chlorophyll at the major groups of C = C, C = O and C9 of the ketonic groups, and the vibrational bands are more evident at C-H and N-H of the tetrapyrrole ring. It is concluded that C-N bands are more visible in 5% BC treated spinach and fenugreek than in all other treatments. These types of spectra are useful in detecting changes or visibility of functional groups, which are very helpful in supporting biochemical data such as an increase in protein can be detected by more visibility of C-N bands in FTIR spectra.

India generates nearly 26,000 a lot of plastics on a daily basis. These plastics pollute the water and soil. The solid plastic wastes incinerated by the municipal agency pollute the air. Consistent with Central Pollution panel 94% of the plastics are thermoplastics or recyclable materials like PET (polyethylene terephthalate) and PVC (Polyvinyl Chloride)The purpose of bioplastic production is an alternate for synthetic plastic. The starch may is a natural biopolymer. Cassava is employed to provide the bioplastic by using glycerol plasticizer. Perform Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy ( FTIR) for functional groups present within the bioplastic And analysis of degradation potential of developed bioplastic.

Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy was applied to natural and synthetic planar membrane multibilayer systems made from phospholipids and sphingolipids to perform orientational measurements utilizing the attenuated total reflectance technique. Applying polarized infrared light, the dichroic ratios and the positions of the peak maxima of various infrared-active bands in dependence on temperature and degree of hydration as well as the phase behaviour were studied. Under certain assumptions - which are discussed - made for the order parameter S, the orientation of various functional groups with respect to the molecular axis or to the membrane normal can be determined. For the gel phase values for S between 0.80 ± 0.05 for the complete molecule and 0.40 ± 0.05 for the end methyl group and for the liquid crystalline phase a value of 0.50 ± 0.05 were approximated. Applying these data, a relatively precise determination of the angles of the oscillating dipole moments of various functional groups could be performed, which - for some vibrations - deviate considerably from those angles assumed earlier. Regarding the phase behaviour, it was found that not only the degree of hydration but the amount of bulk water of the sample has a strong influence on the phase transition temperature Tc (lyotrophism), but only a weak influence on the orientational data.

AbstractIn this paper, the incorporation and release of two types of drugs was carried out in microgels of hydroxypropylcellulose/polyacrylamide (HPC/PAAM) and hydroxyethylcellulose/polyacrylamide (HEC/PAAM). The two drugs were NSAIDs (nonsteroidal, anti-inflammatory drugs)—one antipyretic and one analgesic—acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin, ASP) and iuprofen (IBU), respectively. First, the microgels were synthesized and characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) in order to identify the presence of functional groups for each polymer. The incorporation of the drug was made by swelling the microgels in a drug solution and finally carrying out the release of the substances listed at 37° C. The results were obtained by UV-visible spectroscopy.
