"ABSTRAKA natural-based nanocomposite film consisting of chitosan, montmorillonite (MMT) and cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL) was synthesized. The nanocomposite was prepared by mixing a suspension of clay particles (filler, MMT) with a solution containing chitosan as the macroscopic polymer matrix. In this study, it was proposed that non-ionic long-chain alkylmolecules with possible interact ions with the amine group of chitosan could be used as a plasticizer. As a natu-ral source for these compounds, an extract of CNSL was used. A series of chitosan/MMT com-posite samples containing two different clay contents and a sample with an additional CNSL were prepared. FTIR spectroscopy of the nanocomposite films indicated that, by addition of CNSL, amide groups of the chitosan are probably less attached and have more space for vibration. CNSL seems to provide intermolecular spaces between the chitosan molecules. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) analysis showed that the composite containedparticles measuring 100 nm or less, which confirmed that the nanocomposite had been successfully produced by this method. Addition of CNSL as plasticizer improved the tensile strength by 10% and the elastic modulus by almost 18%. Cell growth was observed on all the nanocomposite samples studied."

"Nanopartikel hybrid oksida besi/oksida tembaga/oksida seng telah disintesis dengan menggunakan metode sol-gel untuk tiga variasi molar. Seluruh sampel dikarakterisasi dengan spektroskopi X-Ray Diffraction, Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy, Vibrating Sample Magnetometer, Energy Dispersive X-Ray, Ultraviolet-visible Reflectance dan Fourier-Transform Infrared. Nanopartikel hybrid yang dihasilkan menunjukkan karakteristik feromagnetik dengan morfologi yang merupakan gabungan spherical-like dari oksida besi dan oksida seng dan clews-like dari oksida tembaga. Keempat unsur penyusunan nanopartikel hybrid hadir dalam bentuk ikatan Zn-O, Fe-O dan Cu-O dengan kehadiran fase dan struktur tunggal dari inverse cubic spinel magnetite, hexagonal wurtzite oksida seng dan monoclinic oksida tembaga. Celah energi nanopartikel hybrid cenderung turun dengan berkurangnya rasio molar oksida seng yang berhubungan dengan peningkatan kuantitas oksida besi dan oksida tembaga. Kondisi optimum aktivitas fotokatalitik nanopartikel hybrid dalam mendegradasi methylene blue dengan pemaparan cahaya ultraviolet diperoleh pada kondisi basa untuk pH 13. Nanopartikel hybrid dengan rasio molar 1:1:5 mampu menghasilkan degradasi maksimum dengan laju degradasi yang lebih tinggi dibandingkan nanopartikel oksida seng.

The four elements of the hybrid nanoparticles present in the form of Zn-O, Fe-O and Cu-O bonds and form individual crystal structures and phases of cubic inverse spinel of iron oxide, hexagonal wurtziteof zinc oxide and monoclinic of cuprix oxide. Energy gap of the hybrid nanoparticles tend to shift to lower energy that associates with increasing quantity of iron oxide and cuprix oxide with decreasing zinc oxide molar ratio. Optimum condition for photocatalytic activity of the hybrid nanoparticles in degrading methylene blue under ultraviolet light irradiation is obtained under alkaline conditions for pH 13.

Crude palm oil is one of main commodities exported by Indonesia to many countries. The main fractions of palm oil are palm stearin (solid fraction) and palm olein (liquid fraction). The development of palm stearin and palm olein in the pharmaceutical sector needs to be carried out to increase the benefits of palm oil, this includes manufacture of Nanostructured Lipid Carrier (NLC). Medroxyprogesterone acetate, which is one of the injectable contraceptive drugs,was chosen as the active substance in the NLC, for the success of the Family Planning program. The discontinuation rate for KB injections is 28%. Some of the reasons why patients stop using family planning devices are because they want a more effective method. This problem can be treated with transdermal administration. However, in transdermal administration, stratum corneum is the biggest barrier for drug transport into the skin. This research was conducted to increase the penetration of the drug into the skin by forming medroxyprogesterone acetate to an NLC. NLC was made by high shear homogenization (HSH) and ultrasonication methods. The NLC optimization formula performed by making 3 variations of palm stearin composition: palm olein (7:3); (5:5); (3:7). Based on the optimization results, NLC with a ratio of palm stearin : palm olein (7:3) was chosen as the optimum formula with the characteristics of particle size 110+0.49 nm, zeta potential -27.53+1.13 mV, polydispersity index 0.13+0.03 and entrapment efficiency 98.39+0.006 % . The selected NLC was made into a gel dosage form, compared with non-NLC medroxyprogesterone acetate gel and tested in-vitro using the Franz diffusion cell. Based on the in-vitro test results, the flux value for NLC was 285.81 ng/cm2.hour and for non-NLC gel was 119.25 ng/cm2.hour. The cumulative amount of medroxyprogesterone acetate penetrated for NLC was 5461.66 +679.1 ng/cm2 while for non-NLC was 2204.20+333.68 ng/cm2. Lag time for NLC was 0.34 hours and non-NLC was 2.73 hours. Based on the research, it can be concluded that NLC medroxyprogesterone acetate has higher penetration than non NLC medroxyprogesterone acetate."

"Teknologi nanokarbon sudah mulai berkembang saat ini. Ini disebabkan nanokarbon yang memiliki sifat elektrik, termal dan mekanikal yang sangat baik. Sekarang ini nanokarbon belum diproduksi secara massal dan komersial karena terhambat pada proses produksi yang mahal. Salah satu sumber karbon yang bisa dijadikan pilihan adalah plastik. Selain harganya yang murah, plastik juga merupakan limbah yang sangat melimpah di dunia, termasuk di Indonesia. Untuk katalis, penggunaan Stainless Steel bisa menjadi pilihan karena harganya yang lebih murah dibandingkan nikel atau tembaga. Selain kedua hal ini, preparasi katalis juga berperan penting dalam proses sintesis nanokarbon. Salah satu metode preparasi yang efektif adalah metode preparasi oxidative heat treatment pada suhu 800OC. Kelebihan dari metode preparasi ini adalah waktunya yang cukup singkat dan tidak diperlukan material lain. Metode preparasi yang dilakukan terbukti menambah jumlah nanokarbon yang menempel pada katalis sampai menghasilkan yield 2,2% dengan lama heat treatment 1 menit. Hasil dari XRD menunjukkan adanya CNT pada nanokarbon yang di sintesis dengan suhu 800OC dan suhu pirolisis polietielen 450OC dengan variasi lama heat treatment yang berbeda-beda. Lama heat treatment yang paling optimal adalah 10 menit dengan didapatkan persebaran karbon yang merata dan konsentrasi karbon tertinggi dari karakterisasi SEM-EDX.

Nanocarbon technology has been growing nowadays due to the excellent electrical, thermal and mechanical properties of nanocarbon. However, nanocarbon has not yet been massively and commercially produced because of the expensive production process. As an alternative, plastic can be used as the carbon source not only because it is affordable but also it is a waste which amount is very abundant in the world, including in Indonesia. For the catalyst, Stainles Steel can be the alternative also because it is cheaper compared to nickel and copper. Besides, preparation method of catalyst also plays an important role in nanocarbon synthesis process.

One of the effective preparation methods is oxidative heat treatment at temperature 800OC. The advantages of this method are the fairly short time required and no other material needed to do the preparation. This preparation method is proved by the increasing amount of nanocarbons that are attached on catalyst up to 2.2% yield with one minute duration heat treatment.

The result of XRD shows that there is CNT on the nanocarbon, which synthesis at 800OC and pyrolisis temperature 450OC, in every heat treatment duration variation. The most optimal heat treatment duration is 10 minutes where it shows the carbon are evenly spread and has the highest carbon concentration from SEM-EDX characteristic."
