| Summary: | Oil palm trunks have the potential as a substitute for wood but have several
weaknesses, one of which is low durability. Therefore, it is necessary to improve
the properties of oil palm trunk with impregnation. Tusam resin is widely used as
an impregnant to improve the quality of oil palm trunk, while surian wood
contains surenon, surenin, and surquinone as insect repellent substances. Both of
these materials have potential as fillers to increase the durability of oil palm
trunks. This research aimed to determine the optimum concentration of
impregnants from sawdust and extract of surian wood with tusam resin toward
drywood termites, subterranean termites, and weather resistance for oil palm
trunk. The research method used the experimental method of impregnation
technology using two different impregnants, a mixture of surian wood extract with
tusam resin and tusam resin with surian wood sawdust. There were four
variations of the impregnant concentration for each treatments that are mixture of
surian wood with 0% (ER0), 4% (ER1), 6% (ER2), 8% (ER3) tusam resin extract
and tusam resin with 0% (RS0), 4% (RS1), 6% (RS2), 8% (RS3) surian wood
sawdust. Each treatment was carried out three replications. The experimental
design used a CRD with one factor using DMRT test analysis as post-hoc test. The
results shown that ER2 and SR3 treatments was the optimum concentration of
impregnant used for oil palm trunk impregnation based on the durability of
drywood termites and subterranean termites resistance, while ER0 and SR0
treatments based on the durability of weather resistance.
