Abstract
The most widely used glue in a corrugator is starch, which is a natural polymer. This material needs thermal energy to achieve a binding force, so a heating section is installed in a corrugator. However, this heating section can cause quality problems in linerboards and corrugating medium and increase the production cost because of the high cost of fossil resources. Therefore, a new adhesive that provides the binding force at lower temperatures than the conventional one must be developed. In this study, SB-latex was selected as a co-adhesive and added to the starch solution. The addition of the SB-latex was determined based on the viscosity of the new adhesive. The adhesive strength and the drying energy reduction of a corrugated board were measured to evaluate the functionalities of the new adhesive. The addition of SB-latex was determined to be under 20% of the oven-dried starch based on the viscosity of the new adhesive. The adhesive strength was improved and the drying energy was reduced by applying the new adhesive.
