Abstract

Ships are transportation at sea for the community which made from materials, such as wood, steel, and others. Along with the development of technology, the use of durable and recyclable materials has become a new concern so that other alternative materials are still needed as the basic materials for shipbuilding. HDPE can be used as an alternative material due to its characteristics of durability and recyclable. It was necessary to know in advance the mechanical properties of HDPE due to its strength. One of its mechanical properties is the flexural strength. Therefore, research was conducted on the analysis of the mechanical properties of HDPE through flexural strength testing. This research was conducted to determine the flexural strength and flexural modulus of the three brands of HDPE to be applied as a basic material for shipbuilding by referring to the Turk Loydu acceptability standard. The HDPE material is processed into test specimens and flexural strength testing was carried out. The analysis data obtained in the form of flexural strength and flexural modulus of HDPE AGRU of 24.44 and 372.35 MPa, local HDPE of 58.16 and 648.54 MPa, and HDPE ROCHLING of 61 and 650.15 MPa. Based on the analysis, it can be concluded that HDPE ROCHLING had the greatest strength and flexural modulus. Meanwhile, HDPE that could be used as the basic material for shipbuilding based on flexural strength, namely local HDPE and ROCHLING HDPE.
