Abstract

<p>An unique hard board named PASCO has been manufactured by a wet forming method from plant fibers since 1971 in Nagaoka mill, Hokuetsu corporation. Raw materials of PASCO are fresh pulp, waste paper and recycled materials and interestingly adhesive binders are not used in the board. Therefore, PASCO is an eco–friendly product and has been applied for various fields for many years.</p><p>In this presentation, we compared PASCO with other hard boards and resin boards, measuring bending strength and Izod impact strength as mechanical properties.</p><p>When suitable raw materials were selected to PASCO production, it showed better mechanical properties compared to conventional tip boards or particle boards and had superior impact strength than those of resin boards, even though the board had no adhesive binders.</p><p>Considering the microplastic and plastic pollution in the world, we will promote to use paper–based products such as PASCO in order to reduce the environmental impact.</p>
