Abstract

       This research studied the manufacturing of thermal insulation sheet composed of labeling waste from beverage industrial mixed with bagasse fiber from sugar industry. The procedure was carried on by immersed the labeling waste and bagasse fiber into sodium hydroxide solution (NaOH) 1% (m/v) for 4 hours after that thoroughly mixed the labeling waste with the bagasse fiber as 3 proportions, 25:75, 50:50 and 75:25. All proportions of prepared waste were combined with latex adhesive 50 g and molded the thermal insulation specimen as the rectangular shape, 9 x 10 x 1.5 cm. Dried the thermal insulation at the ambient condition for 7 days then attached together as thermal insulation sheet, 45 x 100 x 1.5 cm. Afterward, the physical properties were analyzed. It was indicated the thermal insulation manufactured from labeling waste and bagasse proportion as 75:25 was the most appropriate to use. Implied from its properties as it was light greenish grey. The value of mass, density, including
moisture content compared with the other proportion were lowest that was equal to 44.66 ± 4.10 g, 0.17 ± 0.03 g/cm3 and 8.35 ± 0.15% respectively. The shatter index and combustion rate were tested and found thermal insulation specimen could not fragile also it could be stopped combustion. However, when the thermal insulation was wet, it would swell such the thickness swell was equal to 9.40 ± 2.55 % then it was disintegrated later. Furthermore, the comparison of temperature between the simulation system which was installed and not installed the developed thermal insulation was analyzed. The result revealed that temperatures were significantly different (P < 0.05). Simulation system also installed the thermal insulation from labeling waste and bagasse fiber, 75:25 proportion was able to reduce the temperature down most effectively as 1.17 °C.
