PREPARATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF RICE HUSK ASH AS FILLER MATERIAL IN TO NANOPARTICLES ON HDPE THERMOPLASTIC COMPOSITES

The purpose of this research is to create nano particles rice rusk ash used as a filler in thermoplastic high density poliethylen (HDPE) and nano-mechanical properties of the resulting composites. The method of rice husk ash made ??way smoothed by ball mill PM 200 for 1 hour, the filter results in a ball mill with a sieve size of 200 mesh (74 µm), rice husk ash is dissolved in 2.5M NaOH for 4 hours and then stirred with a magnetic stirrer, then at Ball mill for 15 hours at a rate of 450 rpm, nano rice husk ash is used as filler in HDPE thermoplastic composition (2,4,6,8,10) wt% were blends in an internal mixer at a temperature of 150 0C laboplastomil at a rate of 60 rpm for 10 minutes. Nano composite mechanical properties were analyzed with Universal Testing Mechanic. The results obtained rice husk ash silica composition of 89.6 wt%, the particle size of 50.6 nm, the results of the mechanical properties of tensile strength and elongation at break of an increase in the composition of the mixture 2 to 4% by weight.
