ABSTRAK
Papan semen berpotensi besar sebagai bahan substitusi kayu untuk
konstruksi bangunan. Tujuan penelitian adalah mengevaluasi kualitas papan
semen berupa sifat fisis dan mekanis papan semen serta ketahanannya terhadap
serangan rayap. Papan dibuat dengan ukuran 30 cm x 30 cm x 1 cm dan kerapatan
1 g/cm3 pada variasi komposisi semen : fiber : air dengan penambahan katalis
kalsium klorida. Sifat fisis dan mekanis papan semen yang memenuhi standar JIS
A 5414-1993 adalah kerapatan, daya serap air dan MOE sedangkan kadar air,
pengembangan tebal dan MOR tidak memenuhi standar. Nilai kerapatan papan
semen dengan menggunakan katalis kalsium klorida yang memenuhi standar
adalah 1,27 g/cm3-1,29 g/cm3, daya serap air 5,30%-22,31%, MOE 468,48
kg/cm2-568,33 kg/cm2, sedangkan kerapatan papan semen tanpa katalis berkisar
1,13 g/cm3-1,67g/cm3, daya serap air 9,95%-16,83%, MOE 131,73 kg/cm2-196,95
kg/cm2. Papan semen memiliki keawetan yang cukup tinggi terhadap serangan
rayap. Papan semen yang memiliki kualitas terbaik berdasarkan pengujian sifat
fisis, mekanis dan ketahanan terhadap serangan rayap terdapat pada komposisi
perbandingan semen : fiber : air (1,75 : 1,75 : 1,25) dan penambahan katalis
kalsium klorida.
Kata kunci: papan semen, limbah kardus, kalsium klorida, sifat fisis dan
mekanis, keawetan

ABSTRACT
Cement board holds great potential as a wood substitute material for
building construction. The research objective was to evaluate the physical and
mechanical properties of cement board as well resistance to termite attack.
Boards made with size 30 cm x 30 cm x 1 cm and a density 1 g/cm3 under various
composition of cement : fiber : water ratio with addition of calcium chloride
catalysts. Physical and mechanical properties of cement board that fulfill the
standards were the density, water absorption and MOE, while the moisture
content, thickness swelling and MOR not fulfill the standards. The value density of
the cement board using calcium chloride catalyst that fulfill the standards is the
ranges from 1,27 g/cm3- 1,29 g/cm3, water absorption 5,30%-22,31%, MOE
468,48 kg/cm2-568,33 kg/cm2 while the cement board without catalyst density
ranges from 1,13 g/cm3-1,67 g/cm3, water absorption 9,95%-16,83%, MOE
131,73 kg/cm2-196,95 kg/cm2. The cement board has a relatively high durability
against termite attack. Cement board that has the best quality based on the testing
of physical properties, mechanical properties and resistance to termite attack
there on the composition ratio of cement : fiber : water (1,75 : 1,75 : 1,25) and
calcium chloride catalyst.
Key words: cement board, corrugated paper waste, calcium chloride, physical
and mechanical properties, durability
