description INTRODUCTIONS: Ultrasonication can be used to synthesize nanosilica from silica derived from betung bamboo sticks and leaves. This study aimed to synthesize nanosilica from betung bamboo sticks and leaves by the use of ultrasonication and to characterize the nanosilica produced. METHODS: The main materials used in this study were bamboo sticks and leaves. Betung bamboo sticks and leaves were sun-dried and then burned separately without adding fuel to produce charcoal. Then the produced charcoal was burned at a temperature of 700°C for 6 hours in a furnace to produce ash. Silica was extracted from furnace ash using reflux methods. The production of nanosilica from the silica derived from the betung bamboo sticks and leaves was carried out using ultrasonication. RESULTS: The yield of silica from sticks and leaves was based on ash dry weight 45.73% and 79.93%, respectively. The nanosilica derived from betung bamboo sticks had a particle size in the range of 169.87–1479.50 nm, with an average size of 502.35 nm and a particle dispersion index value of 0.1420. Nanosilica derived from betung bamboo leaves had a particle size in the range of 234.49–851.36 nm, with an average size of 472.67 nm and a particle dispersion index value of 0.0670. Scanning electron microscopy analysis showed that silica from betung bamboo sticks and leaves still agglomerated. The particle size of silica could minimize through ultrasonication to synthesize nanosilica. DISCUSSIONS: X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the structure of nanosilica differed from that of silica, and it appeared to be semicrystalline. The ultrasonication method for the synthesis of nanosilica derived from betung bamboo sticks and leaves ash can produce nanosilica that has a semicrystalline phase. The use of surfactants in the process can make the size of the nanosilica particles more uniform and reduce the size of the nanoparticles produced.
