The performance and characterization of biodegradable plastic from tapioca starch was studied. Modified the chitosan was one of the ingredients for produce  the biodegradable plastics. The produced biodegradable polastic were thin sheet plastic, elastic and transparent. The biodegradable plastic performance had tensile strength between 2,26-3.73 Mpa, elongation ranges from 17.24 to 76.76%, and water absorption ranges from 30.81-268.9%. In antioxidant analyze, apples are wrapped in plastic and had significant mechanical properties changes on 8th day.Morphology scanning result showed that in the chitosan-polyNIPAM there were no cavities may caused high hydrophilicity in the biodegradable plastic.

Abstract:The use of starch as the main ingredient in making plastic has great potential especially in Indonesia with various starch-producing plants. To obtain bioplastics, starch is added with glycerol plasticizer, so that the plastic is more flexible and elastic. In this study, cassava starch (Manihot esculenta cranz) was used and the volume of glycerol as plasticizer was varied by 2 ml, 3 ml and 4 ml. The aim to be achieved in this study was to determine the volume variation of glycerol against the tensile strength of environmentally friendly biodegradable plastic films made from cassava starch. In addition, to find out what is the density of environmentally friendly biodegradable plastic films made from cassava starch. Cassava starch was obtained by isolating cassava starch 15 grams and then mixed with 2 ml glycerol (varied 3 ml and 4 ml) and 50 ml of aquades then heated while stirring with magnetic stirrer to form a thick dough. The mixture is then printed on a stainless steel mold. The results obtained in the form of thin sheets of plastic film that has been tested for tensile strength and density. After that followed by morphological analysis. The results of the biodegradable plastic characterization for tensile strength of plastic films with volume variations of glycerol 2 ml, 3 ml and 4 ml respectively as follows: 0.001 Mpa 0.069 Mpa 0.005 Mpa. For the density of biodegradable plastics for variations in volume of glycerol 2 ml, 3 ml and 4 ml respectively 0.0009 g / mm3, 0.0015 g / mm3 and 0.0014 g / mm3.Abstrak:Penggunaan pati sebagai bahan utama pembuatan plastik memiliki potensi yang besar terlebih lagi di Indonesia terdapat berbagai tanaman penghasil pati.

<p>Plastic is a packaging materials that are widely used but has an adverse impact on the environment because it is difficult to degrade in nature. Production technology of biodegradable plastics from natural resources that have characteristic environmentally friendly has developed. Starch-based biodegradable plastic is a widely developed type because the production process is simple and the raw materials more readily available. The starch of cassava and sago has potential as a raw material of biodegradable plastic because of the availability and its characteristic. Also, to make starch as the main ingredient, plasticizers and structural strengthening materials are required to produce biodegradable plastic with excellent characteristics.

This research was carried out by experimental method in laboratory. Making bioplastic film was done by dissolving, blending, printing, drying, and neutralizing process. Characterization of bioplastic film was performed by tensile strength test,% elongation, thickness, swelling, solubility, biodegradability and functional group analysis with FTIR. The produced bioplastic characterizations were compared to commercial biodegradable plastics. The results concluded that the qualities of bioplastic chitosan-ganyong starch are  higher than commercial biodegradable plastics on tensile strength parameter (53,9644 Mpa : 18,4109 MPa),% elongation (1,8066 % : 3,7025%), and degradation ability (5 days : 30 days); but lower in thickness parameters (0.0350 mm: 0.0140 mm), % swelling (0.275%: 0.010%), and solubility (0.10%: 0.05%).</p><p><strong> </strong></p><p> </p>

Appropriate concentration of base material and plasticizer is required to obtain good physical and mechanical properties of edible film for food packaging and preservation functions. The aim of this study was to obtain the best combination of the base material and plasticizer in the manufacture of agar films based on physical and mechanical properties. Results showed that the physical and mechanical properties of the agar edible film were affected by the agar and glycerol concentrations. Increasing agar concentrations resulted in the increase in the film thickness, tensile strength (TS), and elongation at break (EAB), but decreased the filmsolubility. While increasing glycerol concentration tended to increase the film thickness and solubility, but decrease the TS of the film. The best concentration combination of agar and glycerol in this study was 3 and 10%, respectively.

Halophilic microorganisms thrive at elevated concentrations of sodium chloride up to saturation and are capable of growing on a wide variety of carbon sources. Hence, the biotechnological application of these microorganisms can cover many aspects one of these is bioplastic production. Biodegradable plastics are plastics that are decomposed by the action of living organisms using bacteria. Biodegradable plastic is a renewable biopolymers synthesized in bacteria having similar characteristics of plastics produced from petroleum character. In the following work preisolated halophilic strains were screened for PHB production. The positive strains were subjected to PHB production. Estimation of PHB was done by using UV spectrophotometer and FTIR. Highest PHB producing strain was further used for optimization of different parameters for PHB production.

Synthesis and characterizations of Biodegradable Plastic made of Cassava Waste Starch, glycerol, acetic acid and Aloe vera extract has done. The aims of this research are to study the influence of addition of aloe vera extract in plastics mechanics properties, water vapor transmission rate and biodegradation. There are five main steps in this research, extraction of aloe vera, cassava starch preparation from cassava waste, preparations, characterization and biodegradability study of biodegradable plastic. The addition variations of aloe vera extract that used in this research are 0.01; 0.03; 0.05; 0.07 and 0.14 grams. Results showed that the addition of aloe Vera tends to increased biodegrable plastic thickness to 0.01 mm and elongation to 32.07%. However, biodegradable plastic tensile strength tends to decreased to 23.95 Mpa. Optimum tensile strength is 3.90 Mpa and elongation is 34.43%. Optimum water vapor transmission rate is 2.40 g/m2hours. Biodegradation study of biodegradable plastic showed that addition of aloe vera extract doesn’t significantly influence in plastic degradations.

The aim of this research is to investigate mechanical and microstructure characteristic of ST 37 Friction Stir Welded (FSW) butt joints. The rolled plate of ST 37 steel was used as the base material. Tungsten carbide (20 mm on diameter) was used as the tool. The FSW process was conducted on a CNC milling machine. FSW joints were produced at 1500 and 2000 rpm of rotational speeds variation and the transverse speed is constan at 40 mm/min. Furthermore, the influence of rotational speed on the microstructure and mechanical properties of the joints were investigated based on parameters mentioned above. The tensile test was done based on JISZ 2241 standard. Microhardness was investigated based on ASTM E 384. Joint microstructure was also analyzed by optic microscopy. As a result, FSW joint at 2000 rpm tool rotation shows higher tensile strength, yield strength and percentage of elongation in compare to 1500 rpm rotaton speed. In addition, its tensile strength is about 5 % lower than Base Material (BM) which its ductility decreases up to 30 %.
