| Summary, etc. |
This research explores the sustainable potential of upcycling textile waste and abaca fiber into specialty paper as a strategic solution to the environmental crisis caused by the fashion industry’s pollution and the paper industry’s reliance on wood pulp. Utilizing an Input-Process-Output (IPO) methodology, the study transformed 100% cotton t-shirt waste and abaca fibers into paper through alkaline hydrolysis, mechanical beating, and the application of cornstarch as a binding agent. Laboratory analysis by the Philippine Fiber Industry Development Authority (PFIDA) confirmed the material’s satisfactory performance, recording a basis weight of 174.66 and a tear index of 4.4. Furthermore, the sensory evaluations from 25 respondents confirmed the material’s high quality, specifically highlighting Formulation 3 (utilizing 50g of cornstarch) for its superior thickness, smoothness, and durability. With an grand mean score of 4.42, the resulting specialty paper was deemed "Highly Acceptable,". Ultimately, these findings demonstrate that repurposing textile waste and abaca fiber offers a viable, eco-friendly alternative for resource conservation and waste management, promoting a circular economy and reducing the ecological impact of traditional paper production. |
