Abstract
A dry blend pre-mixture composition for use in making corrugating adhesives is comprised of starch and from about 5% to about 20% of ground plant germ. The starch and germ can be derived from various plant sources and in a preferred embodiment the starch is corn starch and the germ is ground corn germ, also known as spent flake. The corrugating adhesives can be prepared by using the pre-mixture as a replacement for starch in a process for making a carrier, no-carrier or carrier-no-carrier adhesive.
