Abstract

A paper washbowl made from recycled newspaper that can hold hot soapy water (70o C) for a mini-mum of 4 h was successfully developed by using EvCote® PGLR-25 added into the fiber slurry before the bowl was formed. We also studied other variables such as furnish, size (rosin and alkyl ketene dimer), and retention aids. In addition to the EvCote® PGLR-25, the results showed that the retention aid and rosin both are important ingredients in the fiber formulation.
