dc.description.abstract | Raja’s banana fibers have the best tensile endurance between the others.
The characteristic, could be used making rope that can be used for binding,
attracting, trapping, tethering, hanging and others in accordance with the rope
usefulness. The research was aimed to know the endurance of Raja’s banana fiber
rope with and without NaOH solution on the rope tensile test.
Results of the research indicated that the second, third and fourth twists
with and without NaOH 5% during the 2nd hour gave the different results of
tensile strength, strain, deformation, elasticity and flexing. The highest result of
tensile strength was on the third twist condition (with treatment) i.e.
515,92×105 N/m2
. The highest result of strain was on the third twist condition
(with treatment) i.e. 1,98. The highest result of deformation was on the second
twist condition (with treatment) i.e. 0,153 m. The highest result of elasticity was
on the fourth twist condition (with treatment) i.e. 318,47×105 N/m2
. And the
highest result of flexing was on the fourth twist condition (with treatment) i.e.
