Hi Steve, I greatly appreciate your videos. They are very instructive. I do have a question on the slide which shows the structure of dialdehyde starch. In parenthesis below the label of Dialdehyde starch it has the chemical name of polyacrylamide. Is this an error or just a reference for another chemical for temporary wet strength?
Well spotted Daniel, 'polyacrylamide' should not be there. My apologies. I copied that slide from another presentation to give myself a start, and forgot to remove the word.. Thanks for pointing it out
I saw some washable paper bags, its very strong when its dry and even we can wash it multiple times, its made out of paper.. Can you please tell me how we can make similar type of product ? And what type of chemicals are used ? I want to make it in my handmade paper unit
