              19 Oktober 2016   ABSTRAK PLLA merupakan biodegrasi polimer yang mempunyai aplikasi yang meluas 
              dalam pelbagai bidang industri dan perubatan. Dalam kajian ini, 
              PLLA telah 
              dicampurkan dengan triali isosianurat (TIAC) antara 1 hingga 6 v/v% bagi 
              melihat perubahan sifat tegangan dan terikan filem PLLA. 
              TIAC 
              biasanya digunakan sebagai agen taut silang dan keplastikan 
              untuk mengubah sifat polimer. Campuran PLLA-TIAC telah diiradiasi pada 
              10 kGy di bawah alur elektron (EB) dan gamma (γ). Keputusan 
              menunjukkan kekuatan tegangan (tegasan maksimum) menurun dengan 
              peningkatan kandungan TIAC di dalam PLLA tetapi 
              meningkat sedikit pada 4 v/v% TIAC bagi PLLA iradiasi 
              dan tanpa iradiasi. Manakala nilai terikan didapati meningkat pada 
              TIAC 
              2 v/v% dan menurun apabila TIAC ditambah melebihi 2% v/v% 
              terutamanya bagi PLLA yang diiradiasikan. Daripada keputusan 
              DSC terdapat perubahan pada suhu peralihan kaca, Tg, 
              suhu penghabluran sejuk, Tc, entalpi penghabluran sejuk, Hc dan 
              suhu peleburan, Tm menunjukkan berlaku perubahan pergerakan 
              rantaian PLLA dan fasa penghabluran dengan kehadiran 
              TIAC dan sinaran mengion di dalam PLLA. 
              Perubahan pada puncak penyerapan spektra infra merah jelmaan fourier 
              (FTIR) 
              menunjukkan berlaku penggantian atau kemasukkan molekul TIAC ke 
              dalam rantian PLLA.   Kata kunci: Iradiasi elektron;

              TIAC   ABSTRACT PLLA is a biodegradable polymer that is widely used in industrial and 
              medical field. In this works, PLLA was mixed with 1-6 v/v% with 
              (TIAC) to investigate the changes in tensile and strains 
              properties of the PLLA film. PLLA commonly 
              used as plasticizer or crosslinked agent to change the polymer property. 
              PLLA 
              and TIAC mixture was irradiated under 10 
              kGy doses for both of gamma (γ) and electron beam (EB). 
              The results showed that the tensile strength (maximum stress) reduce 
              with the increasing of TIAC amount in the PLLA but slightly increase at 
              4 v/v% TIAC addition for both irradiated and non-irradiated PLLA. 
              Strain was found to increase at 2 v/v%. TIAC but decreased when more than 
              2 v/v% TIAC was added for irradiated PLLA. 
              DSC 
              results showed the changes in glass transition temperature, 
              Tg, 
              cold crystallization enthalpy, Hc, cold crystallization temperature, 
              Tc and melting temperature, Tm indicate 
              the changes in mobility of PLLA chain and crystallization regions 
              with present of TIAC and ionizing radiation in PLLA. 
              The changes in fourier transform infra-red (FTIR) 
              absorptions peak indicate the penetrating of TIAC molecules 
              into the PLLA chains.   Keywords: Electron beam irradiation; gamma irradiation; PLLA; tensile strength; TIAC RUJUKAN  Eftekhari, S.,
