ERNI, RODNEY JAMES C., FERRERA, AL OWEN ROY A. "Production of Specialty Cardboard from Recycled Bond Paper with Sugar Palm (Arenga Pinnata) Fibers as Extender" Research Study (General Science Curriculum). Science High School, College of Education, Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. March, 2010. Adviser: Ms. Enrica C. Esmero
The study was conducted at Brgy. Kayquit, Indang, Cavite from December 2009 to January 2010 to identify the physical and optical properties of the specialty cardboard with sugar palm fibers as extender. Specifically, it aimed to: 1) name the best treatment used in making the specialty cardboard; 2) identify the level of acceptability of the specialty cardboard with sugar palm fibers as extender; and 3) enumerate the benefits of the specialty cardboard to the consumers. Four treatments were evaluated in the study: Treatment 0 (300g of recycled bond paper pulp); Treatment 1 (300g of recycled bond paper pulp with 50g of sugar palm fibers); Treatment 2 (300g of recycled bond paper pulp with 75g of sugar palm fibers) and; Treatment 3 (300g of recycled bond paper pulp with 100g of sugar palm fibers).
The physical and optical characteristics of the specialty cardboards with sugar palm fibers as extenders were evaluated and compared to the specialty cardboards without extenders in terms of color, flatness, texture, appearance and general acceptability. The sensory evaluation showed that the sample the evaluators preferred the most is Treatment 0 (300g of recycled bond paper pulp) followed by Treatment I (300g of recycled bond paper pulp with 50g of sugar palm fibers). In general, the results revealed that sugar palm (Arenga pinnala) fibers are not advisable to be used as extender in the production of specialty cardboard from recycled bond paper.
