Abstract
Have been reactively synthesized bio-composites material that has a good in mechanical strength and fuel resistance. The starting material for the manufacture of bio-composite was recycled PP (rPP) modified AA, reinforcement kenaf fiber (KF), the mixture of magnesium hydroxide (MH) and aluminum hydroxide (ATH) without or with boric acid (BA) as a fire retardant. The burning rate (BR) and tensile strength (TS) test were used ASTM D635 and D638, respectively. The presence of mixture fire retardant [MH/ATH] with ratio of 15/5 in the bio-composites can effectively reduce their burning rate (BR). Biodegradability of the bio-composites, which is reflected by weight loss (WL) is achieved arise after burying the bio-composites in garbage soil for four months. However, the presence of mixture fire retardant could marginally decrease the TS of the bio-composites.
