Abstract
This study describes the manufacture of modified composites from recycled HDPE plastic waste and TKKS fibers. The comparison of matrix composition with TKKS fibers used is (70:30); (80:20) and (90:10) %. The mixing process of HDPE with OPEFB was carried out using the melt blending method and extruded to obtain composite pellets. Composite characterization obtained high tensile strength in HDPE composites: OPEFB ratio (70:30) % of 36.50 Mpa, while the tensile strength of HDPE: OPEFB ratio (80:20) and HDPE: OPEFB ratio (90:10) % were obtained respectively 23.50 MPa and 26.50 MPa. The results of the surface structure test with SEM showed that there was a bond between the HDPE matrix and TKKS fibers which was marked by a brittle fracture shape on the surface of the composite and the fibers were not uniformly broken. The impact test results of HDPE composite: OPEFB ratio (80:20) % have a high impact value of 0.363168 Joules. The FT-IR test results show deformation of C-H vibrations and pyranose C-O-C which are typical of OPEFB at wave numbers 1070.49 & 1151.50 cm- and intermolecular O-H bending in TKKS at wave numbers 3672.47 cm-. The TGA test results of HDPE composite: OPEFB ratio (70:30) and HDPE: TKKS (80:20) obtained degradation temperature values (Te) of 535.57ᴼC and 529.74ᴼC, respectively.
