ABSTRACT Composite materials have excellent potential for construction and building applications, especially from an environmental and economic perspective. The need to replace hazardous materials with environmentally friendly products is a growing concern worldwide. Composites based on natural fibers have become popular because of their superior sustainable features. Along with various innovations made in the field of materials, natural fibers are being developed again by researchers to be used as composite reinforcement materials. The formation of lignocellulosic using the chlorination method in this stage is used 5% NaClO2 resulting in the formation of white lignocellulose while the addition of distilled water results from the process shows the desired formation of lignocellulose with the formation of fibers, strong tensile strength, colorless. In the process of making bricks, two methods are used, namely the mix and sandwich methods. The success of making lignocellulosic is confirmed through FTIR (Fourier transform infrared) spectroscopy analysis. SEM analysis results show that lignocellulose is in the form of fibers with a size of 50 m. The EDS results showed a C content of 85,265, 78,000 an O content of 11,241, 13,000 EDS spectrum. In the process of making bricks using the sandwich method, they are not homogeneous or even fused. Further research is needed to use this method; apart from using the sandwich method, researchers use a mix, and the results of the bricks obtained are homogeneous or even fused. There is an effect of the addition of lignocellulosic material on the compressive strength of bricks. This is indicated by a decrease in the compressive strength of the bricks with increasing lignocellulosic substitution in the bricks. |
