Keywords:Straw, Plastic alternative, Natural materials


With plastic regulations spreading around the world, plastic straws have become a global symbol of disposable plastics. Demand for paper straws is increasing as an alternative to disposable plastic straws, but paper straws use additives and synthetic adhesives, which may have an impact on the environment. Therefore, in this research, we aimed at research and development of straws made of 100% natural origin with less environmental load, and aimed at prototype production of straws made of 100% natural materials.
