The dimensional stability of Mersawa (Anisoptera spp) / Jackie Deman, Lionel Daan Joannes and Ahmad Basirun Abdul Rashid

The main objective of this thesis is to study The Dimensional Stability of Mersawa. The method that we used is the measurement of the initial length, width and thickness of Mersawa is subtracted by the final length, width and thickness, divided by the final length, width and thickness, and multiplied by 100 ([(Initial Dimension – Final Dimension)/ Initial Dimension] x 100 = % of Change). We used 4 different temperatures on 5 samples, sample A is at 25°C, sample B is at 50°C, sample C is at 75°C lastly sample D and sample E are at 105°C. The result that we received shows that all samples have a decrease in the final length, width and thickness compared to the initial length, width and thickness.
