Research Abstract |
In our recent society, various plastic products have been used and disposed by each home, each company, each industry. So, recently it is pointed out that the construction of new society and life which are not dependent on various plastics products derived from petrochemistry has been urgently demanded. And, a lot of industrial plant fibrous wastes have been disposed and exhausted in our living activities day after day. This research project is to produce "New Wood Material" of 100% natural products which are made, without plastic materials of the oil origin, from various biomasses exhausted by harvesting and processing of primary products in agriculture and other natural industry. The prototypes of the eco-bowl are produced by applying our research seed to three plant fibrous wastes and a manufacturing technique is developing to form various tableware and living goods from natural materials using a crosslinking reaction of tannin polymers.
