Abstract
Abstract Currently, the light has shed on the ecological-friendly products. The mulberry products, especially hand-made paper, are wildly facilitated as general wares or decoration. The research on the lamination of the mulberry paper with biodegradable films can ameliorate the usability, corresponding to the modernisation and green products. Meticulously, the laminating machine is designed and created in this research, with the size 98 x 118 x 126 centimetres. The machine is consisted of the roller driver and the infrared heater. The laminate film will be pulled by the roller driver and be passed the latex glue and infrared heater. Subsequently, the film will be coated on the mulberry paper by the rubber roller. The experimental results show that the best lamination is at speed 3.72 m/min. In addition, the biodegradable film has thickness 40 μm and tensile strength is 40.22 MPa. Tensile strength of normal mulberry paper is 37.07 MPa, but 79.14 MPa after the lamination. The laminated mulberry-paper is more attractive, strengthening, and lotus effect. The surface becomes smooth, easily to print and to clean out the dirt.
