A starch-based corrugating adhesive composition comprising: at least one solvent; a carrier starch dispersed within the at least one solvent, wherein the carrier starch is undried; a raw starch dispersed within the at least one solvent; and wherein the starch-based corrugating adhesive composition comprises a pH of greater than approximately 7.

Starch-based corrugating adhesive compositions

A method for preparing hydrophobic starch derivatives wherein starch and an anhydride are reacted in a slurry with the anhydride reagent being added to the slurry in pre-emulsified form to provide a significantly faster and more efficient reaction.

Starch ester release coatings

Release coating compositions comprising: a) a starch ester release agent having an ester component of 2 to 8 carbon atoms and a degree of substitution (DS) of from 1.0 to 2.2; b) a hydrophobic plasticizer; and c) water.

An aqueous water resistant, viscosity stable adhesive composition for use in paper bonding applications comprising a hydrophobically modified fluidity corn starch having a water fluidity of about 60 to 80 and a solids content of about 8 to 40%. The starch having the formula ##STR1## wherein R is a dimethylene or trimethylene group, R' is a hydrocarbon group having 5-12 carbon atoms and Y is H, alkali metal, alkaline earth metal or ammonium.

Starch-based, water resistant adhesives

This invention presents starch-based alkaline corrugating adhesives having improved green bond strength due to the use of undried starch as the raw starch component in the adhesive. Such adhesives can be used in corrugation processes at much higher corrugator running speeds than the conventionally employed adhesives.
