Utilizing the D-Optimal Mixture in Design of Experiments (DOE) software, this investigation aimed to create a composite of recycled polypropylene-reinforced oil palm vacant fruit bunches and fly ash. The formulation was derived by employing many ratios based on the data collected through the utilization of Design of Experiments (DOE) software. The thermal properties of twenty formulations were compared by analyzing their reaction by Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA). The residue remaining, also known as ash content, was utilized as a criterion for selecting the optimal formulation ratio. This study endeavors focused on investigating the feasibility of achieving optimal flame-retardant composite formulations through the precise blending of appropriate ratios. Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) was employed to acquire the thermal characteristics. The temperature of the thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) was recorded within the range of 25°C to 900°C, employing a heating rate of 10°C/min and utilizing nitrogen gas as the medium. The formulation of the composite was determined by utilizing Design of Experiment (DOE) software to analyze its thermal response. This formulation enhances the thermal breakdown of pure recycled polypropylene, resulting in a 50% increase in ash residual content. The thermal degradation loss rate is observed to decrease from 152.40°C to 95.34°C. The formulation of recycled polypropylene reinforced with oil palm empty fruit bunch (OPEFB) and fly ash (FA) for enhancing thermal properties is considered to possess promising potential as a substitute for synthetic fibers in the context of building insulation.
