My research interests are about composite material and natural gas transportation / utilization, such as : Natural fiber (nata de coco fiber, water hyacinth etc.) for composites
The Effect of Surface Treatment on Composites of Water Hyacinth Natural Fiber Reinforced Epoxy Resin,
Water hyacinth is an aquatic weed which has potential of natural fiber as raw material of composites. The mechanical properties and the availability of water hyacinth in tropical country are a potential that could be developed as natural fiber in composite. In this experiment, surface of water hyacinth treated by silane coupling agent for adhering with epoxy resin. Silane coupling agent is used for surface treatment. The Composite of water hyacinth has the highest bending strength (20.524 N/mm2). The silane coupling agent is very significant.
Application of Underground Storage
as an Alternative For Natural Gas Storage Natural gas, like another common commodity can be stored for unlimited time. Exploration, production, and transportation for natural gas need time and it can be directly used to encounter the lack of gas storage, in case of malfunction transmission, and distribution facilities, or moreover in peak load period and market penetration. Therefore, it needs gas buffering to support storage reliability, One of huge storage is underground gas storage.
