Abstrakt: Using sodium borate and silica from oil palm leaves (Elaeis guineensis) (OPL), a low-cost, environmentally friendly alternative method was developed for the synthesis of sodium borosilicate. Calcination at 900 °C was used to afford the product, which was then identified using X-ray difactometry (XRD). The analysis results revealed a broad band at 2θ= 27° and 2θ= 47°, indicating that the prepared glass samples were amorphous. Even though the FTIR analysis did not clearly show the vibration type of Si-O-Si and B-O, it is thought by XRD analysis that sodium borosilicate can be made by mixing sodium borate with silica.
