ABSTRACT
In-situ polymerization method was used to prepare palm-based polyurethane
(PU)
composites loading with 15 wt% magnetite (Fe3O4), polyaniline (PANI) and Fe3O4 coated
with PANI labeled as PU15, PP and PPM,
respectively. FTIR spectroscopy analysis indicated a shift in the
carbonyl, C=O and NH in PP. The shift of the peak indicated
that there was hydrogen bonding between the C=O (proton acceptor) of urethane
with NH (proton-donator) of PANI. PPM gave the highest impact and flexural strengths at 4875 kJ/ m2 and
42 MPa, respectively but with the lowest flexural
modulus (1050 MPa). Two-stage degradation behavior
was observed in the TGA thermogram.

ABSTRAK
Kaedah pempolimeran in-situ digunakan untuk menyediakan komposit poliuretana sawit (PU) dengan penambahan 15% bt. magnetit (Fe3O4), polianilina (PANI) dan Fe3O4 tersalut PANI berlabel masing-masing PU15, PP dan PPM. Analisis spektroskopi FTIR menunjukkan terdapat anjakan pada puncak karbonil C=O dan NH dalam PP. Anjakan puncak ini menunjukkan kehadiran ikatan hidrogen antara C=O (penerima proton) daripada uretana dan NH (penderma proton) daripada PANI. PPM memberikan kekuatan hentaman dan lenturan tertinggi pada masing-masing 4875 kJ/
m2 dan 42 MPa tetapi dengan modulus lenturan terendah (1050 MPa). Peleraian dua peringkat diperhatikan dalam termogram TGA.
Kata kunci: Magnetit; polianilina; poliuretana; sifat mekanik; sifat terma
