Abstract
The aim of this study focused on identifying oflignocelluloses biomass bio-oil, as well as its performance as a wood preservative for preventing subterranean termites Coptotermes curvignathus Holmgren attack. The source of lignocelluloses biomass bio-oil was Laban wood and carbonization process used three temperatures i.e. 350, 400 and 450°C. Identification compounds were performed under Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry (GC-MS). The concentration of lignocelluloses biomass bio-oil was 5, 10, and 15%. The result showed that lignocelluloses biomass bio-oil on concentration 5% with carbonization temperature 400 and 450°C caused 100% mortality of termites. Mean of wood consumption was 5.65∼10.89%. The component in lignocelluloses biomass bio-oil was acetic acid and the other main component were 2-propanone, methanol, 2-propanone1- hydroxy-(acetol), 2-furancarboxaldehyde, phenol, 2-methoxy-, phenol, 2,6-dimethoxy-.The lignocelluloses biomass bio-oil from Laban wood has antitermites properties and a potential to be used as new natural bio preservatives in wood industries.
