Abstract

Manufacturing nanocellulose made from pineapple peel fiber has been carried out using acid hydrolysis. This study aims to determine the effect of variations in H₂SO₄on the synthesis of nanocellulose in pineapple peel fibers and on the crystal structure, surface morphology, and constituent elements of pineapple skin fiber nanocellulose. The variations of H₂SO₄ used were 5, 10, 15 and 20%. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron microscopy (SEM) are characterizations used. The results of XRD characterization showed that the size of the resulting crystallite had met the appropriate size in the range of values from 2.03 – 2.21 nm. The results of SEM characterization show that the image is not porous and lumpy.
