Abstract Environmental pollution caused by the use of conventional plastics is increasing. This is due to the high use of conventional plastics and the difficulty of being degraded in nature. Several studies continue to be developed to make plastics that are easily degraded in nature, namely bioplastics. Bioplastic is a type of plastic made from renewable materials and can be decomposed in nature with the help of microorganisms. The manufacture of bioplastics is done by dissolving raw materials such as rice straw, sugarcane bagasse, cocoa husks, and tea waste into various solvents, namely trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), N, N-dimethylformamine (DMF), trifluoroacetic acid anhydride (TFAn), and citric acid. The resulting bioplastics were analyzed for tensile strength and elongation at break. The results showed that the use of rice straw as a raw material in the manufacture of bioplastics showed good results where the composition of the high cellulose content of rice straw was 61.8% and the tensile strength that had met SNI was 43 MPa using trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) as a solvent. However, a good elongation at break was produced by cocoa husks with a value of 28% using trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) and trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAn) as solvents.

Application of chopped glass fiber strand (CGFS) in rice straw based composite was studied and the reinforcing effect of CGFS was evaluated. Rice straw powder (RSP) was used as main material and poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) was selected as adhesive agent. Composites were prepared by hot-pressing method at 10 MPa pressure, 140 °C for 10 min, with the mass ratio of RSP to PVA of 4:3. Results showed that the tensile strength of the composites first increased and then decreased with increasing CGFS amount. When the mass ratio of CGFS to RSP was 7:15, the composite reached its maximum strength of 20.47 MPa. CGFS showed obvious reinforcing effect. Strength at tensile break showed similar change law and tensile strength equaled to or was slightly higher than the strength at tensile break. The tensile elongations of all composites with CGFS were higher than 20%, proving the toughening role of CGFS. The hardness of composites showed certain non-uniformity and lay between 87 and 96. Negligible difference existed in every composite.

The furniture industry is a company that utilizes forest products in the form of wood as the main raw material in the production process. The wood used by the furniture industry in Indonesia reaches 2.6 million m3 per year. The waste generated reached 54.24% of the total production. Sawmill waste generated as much as 1.4 million m3 per year. Based on field observations in several furniture industries in the Sumbawa Region, most industries produce sawdust waste that has not been used optimally, so that sawdust waste accumulates in the soil and decomposes which can trigger environmental pollution and water pollution. Teak sawdust waste has a high cellulose content so it plays an important role as a reinforcement raw material in the manufacture of particle composites. In this study using the hand lay up method of making composite particles by utilizing waste teak sawdust as raw material for reinforcement and epoxy matrix with volume variations of 30:70%, 40:60%, 50:50%, 60:40%, 70:30. %, to obtain quality composite characteristics. Water absorption obtained 14%, each composite specimen has met the standard of SNI 03-2105-2006. The results of physical tests on the water absorption of particleboard composites were the lowest at 0.48% at 30% powder volume with 24 hours immersion due to the wood powder being mixed and bonded evenly by the matrix so as to reduce voids, while the highest yield was 9.41% in 70% volume is due to the matrix not being able to bind evenly, causing voids to occur. It can be concluded that the increasing volume of powder and the length of time of immersion, the greater the percentage value of water absorption produced.

Cellulose is a potential biomass that is used for bioethanol production and commonly present in agricultural residues like rice straw. Cellulose is an important material to produce glucose and bioethanol, but it is covered by lignin and hemicellulose bonds to form a lignocellulose.  Bioethanol production using basic material containing cellulose requires special attention in the process of pretreatment for lignin degradation process and increase the accessible surface and decrystallize cellulose. The aim of this research was to apply alkalization and resistive heating combine method for rice straw pretreatment process before further being converted into bioethanol and to determine the effects of heating temperature and NaOH concentration on the content of  lignin, cellulose, and hemicellulose. The reactor had been designed for resistive heating process. Rice straw that was resized into 100 mesh has dissolved with 0.03 M, 0.05 M, and 0.07 M NaOH and heated with resistive heating temperature of 75 oC, 85 oC, and 99 oC. Cellulose is a raw material that will be further converted into glucose. So that, the selected optimum conditions of this study were  pretreatment with the highest increase of cellulose content level until 8.88% and resulted decreasing levels of lignin (1.39%) and hemicellulose (4.33%) by temperature  75 oC and 0.07 M NaOH concentration. Resistive heating that combine with alkalization can be used for rice straw pretreatment process that reduce lignin and hemicellulose content as well as increasing cellulose content. ABSTRAKSelulosa merupakan biomassa yang potensial digunakan untuk produksi bioetanol dan banyak ditemukan di residu pertanian seperti jerami padi. Selulosa merupakan material penting yang dapat dikonversi menjadi glukosa kemudian dikonversi menjadi bioetanol, namun selulosa pada alam dilapisi oleh ikatan lignin dan hemiselulosa menjadi lignoselulosa. Pembuatan bioetanol berbasis selulosa membutuhkan proses pretreatment yang berfungsi untuk mendegradasi ikatan lignin, meningkatkan luas permukaan biomassa dan dekristalisasi selulosa. Tujuan dari penelitian ini adalah mengetahui pengaruh alkalisasi resistive heating pada proses pretreatment jerami padi sebelum dikonversi lebih lanjut menjadi bioetanol dan mengetahui pengaruh suhu pemanasan serta konsentrasi NaOH selama pretreatment terhadap perubahan kandungan lignin, selulosa dan hemiselulosa. Sebelum dilakukan penelitian dilakukan perancangan reaktor resistive heating. Jerami padi ukuran 100 mesh dilarutkan pada larutan NaOH dengan variasi konsentrasi 0,03 M, 0,05 M, dan 0,07 M, selanjutnya dipanaskan pada reaktor resistive heating dengan variasi suhu pemanasan 75 oC, 85 oC, dan 99 oC. Selulosa merupakan senyawa yang akan dikonversi lebih lanjut menjadi glukosa. Sehingga pada penelitian ini dipilih kondisi optimum berdasarkan peningkatan selulosa tertinggi hingga 8,88% serta penurunan lignin dan hemiselulosa sebesar 1,39% dan 4,33% pada perlakuan suhu pemanasan 75 oC dan konsentrasi NaOH 0,07 M. Alkalisasi resistive heating dapat diterapkan pada pretreatment jerami padi karena dapat mengurangi kandungan lignin dan hemiselulosa serta meningkatkan kandungan selulosa.

In order to explore the enhancing method of rice straw based composites, glass fiber (GF) was introduced into the preparation of composites of poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and rice straw slice (RSS). The tensile performances and hardness of composites were characterized. Results showed that GF had obvious enhancing role on PVA/RSS composites. The tensile strength of the composites first increased and then decreased with increasing GF amount. When the mass ratio of RSS, PVA and GF was 20:15:7, the composite reached its maximum strength of 23.45 MPa, which increased by 1.49 times compared to the composites without GF. The strength at tensile break of composites increased with the increase of GF amount. The maximum of strength at tensile break was 23.12 MPa when GF amount was 9 g. The stretch of composites first increased and then decreased with increasing GF amount. The addition of GF had no effect on the hardness of composites.

Rigid-rod polymers such as PBO, poly(paraphenylene benzobisoxazole), Figure 1a, are now in commercial development for use as high-performance fibers and for reinforcement at the molecular level in molecular composites. Spinning of liquid crystalline polyphosphoric acid solutions of PBO, followed by washing, drying, and tension heat treatment produces fibers which have the following properties: density of 1.59 g/cm3; tensile strength of 820 kpsi; tensile modulus of 52 Mpsi; compressive strength of 50 kpsi; they are electrically insulating; they do not absorb moisture; and they are insensitive to radiation, including ultraviolet. Since the chain modulus of PBO is estimated to be 730 GPa, the high stiffness also affords the opportunity to reinforce a flexible coil polymer at the molecular level, in analogy to a chopped fiber reinforced composite. The objectives of the molecular composite concept are to eliminate the thermal expansion coefficient mismatch between the fiber and the matrix, as occurs in conventional composites, to eliminate the interface between the fiber and the matrix, and, hopefully, to obtain synergistic effects from the exceptional stiffness of the rigid-rod molecule. These expectations have been confirmed in the case of blending rigid-rod PBZT, poly(paraphenylene benzobisthiazole), Figure 1b, with stiff-chain ABPBI, poly 2,5(6) benzimidazole, Fig. 1c A film with 30% PBZT/70% ABPBI had tensile strength 190 kpsi and tensile modulus of 13 Mpsi when solution spun from a 3% methane sulfonic acid solution into a film. The modulus, as predicted by rule of mixtures, for a film with this composition and with planar isotropic orientation, should be 16 Mpsi. The experimental value is 80% of the theoretical value indicating that the concept of a molecular composite is valid.
