Abstract

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of liquid smoke treatment on chicken feather fibres (CFF) on the morphology and impact toughness of composites reinforced with CFF. The experiment was carried out by measuring the density of CFF, followed by immersion in liquid smoke for 1, 2, and 3 hours. All of the fibers, including one without the immersion treatment, were then inserted into the oven at a temperature of 40 °C for 30 min. The morphological assessments were done using a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and the impact test according to the ASTM D5942-96 standard on the Charpy method impact tester. The SEM results showed that the fibers without immersion had a multitude of impurities at the surface, while with immersion treatment, the fibers had a more clean and rough surface. Impact test results showed that the fiber-reinforced composite without treatment was 61,583 Kj/m², while the fiber-reinforced composite with immersion treatment for 1, 2, and 3 hours increased by 63,894 Kj/m², 71,061 Kj/m², and 80,538 Kj/m². Treatment for 3 hours significantly increased the strength of the composite by 30.78%.

Objektif kajian ini adalah untuk menentukan kesan rawatan asap cecair ke atas gentian bulu ayam (CFF) terhadap morfologi dan keliatan impak komposit yang diperkuat dengan CFF. Uji kaji dijalankan dengan mengukur ketumpatan CFF, diikuti dengan rendaman dalam asap cecair selama 1, 2 dan 3 jam. Semua gentian, termasuk satu tanpa rawatan rendaman dimasukkan ke dalam relau pada suhu 40 °C selama 30 minit. Penilaian morfologi dilakukan menggunakan mikroskop elektron pengimbasan (SEM) dan ujian impak mengikut piawaian ASTM D5942-96 pada penguji impak kaedah Charpy. Keputusan SEM menunjukkan bahawa gentian tanpa rendaman mempunyai banyak kekotoran pada permukaan, manakala dengan rawatan rendaman, gentian mempunyai permukaan yang lebih bersih dan kasar. Keputusan ujian impak menunjukkan komposit bertetulang gentian tanpa rawatan ialah 61,583 Kj/m², manakala komposit bertetulang gentian dengan rawatan rendaman selama 1, 2 dan 3 jam meningkat sebanyak 63,894 Kj/m², 71,061 Kj/m² dan 80,538 Kj/m². Rawatan selama tiga jam dengan ketara meningkatkan kekuatan komposit sebanyak 30.78%.
