Abstract
Starch-based corrugating adhesives of the carrier, no-carrier and carrier-no-carrier type having improved green strength and water resistance are prepared by adding hemicellulose to the adhesive composition. When the adhesive is the carrier type or the carrier-no-carrier type, the hemicellulose can be extracted from corn fiber in situ during the process of preparing the carrier phase.
