Abstract:This study aims to determine the process of making composite membranes of chitosan and silica fillers from volcanic ash of Sinabung mountain and determine the physical properties of chitosan composite membranes viz. degree of water absorption, functional groups. In this study, composite membranes were made using phase inversion method with the composition of chitosan and silica used were 2 g of chitosan and variations in dosage of fillers 0.6, 0.9 and 1.2 g of silica, while the stirring time was 8, 12 and 16 h… Show more
