The Used of Pineapple Leaf Fiber, Banana Stem and Kenaf for Production of Paper

Abstract:

The paper explores the use of pineapple leaf fiber (PALF), banana stem fiber and kenaf fiber to produce paper has been done in order to find the alternative source and the method to recyle used newspaper. The decreasing of already material which is cause by the unstable ecosystem and taking long time to harvest. The alternative source can help to increase production of paper and reduce the cost of production. The experiments using PALF, banana stem fiber and kenaf fiber as raw material in paper production have been conducted to assess the advantages in terms of mechanical properties, especially tensile strength, tearing strength, thickness, and grammage of paper. The result obtained from the tests will be compared among the three types of material. Through the observation of the experiment, it was found that the data obtained with different properties of paper produced from the different material.
