dc.description.abstract | In this research, bioplastics was ochestrated from paddy waste by processing it with trifluoroacetic acid (TFA), casting, and evaporation. The high cellulose content in the
paddy has making it as the best preface for solid to synthesis bioplasticks. Two major laboratory test was done to test the chemical and morphological and thermo-mechanical propertieson each films produced. Based on X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, films
which contain paddy materials showed the higher peak intensity than films which
originating from MCC only. The morphology or surface structure of the films that was
analyzed using field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM), showing a bioplastics surface. Overally, the mechanical and
chemical propeties of the bioplastics that was synthesized from paddy waste had slightly
observed to have the same mechanical and chemical properties with platics which
derived from petroleum. | en_US |
