An Investigatory Project of Dried Leaves as an Alternative Component for Paper Production

Vol.4, No.1

Abstract

In this study, it turns out that we, too, require papers before we can produce any. They are
regarded as the fiber required for paper manufacture. As trees naturally contain fibers,
producing paper using them is easier. But, since paper is required everywhere, tree cutting
becomes a problem rather than a solution to the problem of a lack of paper. Because trees are
being taken down for paper production, catastrophes like floods and deforestation occur. We
will use paper as fiber since there is already too much paper trash in the world, which is
beginning to pose a threat to the environment. There are three issues that will be discussed in
this study: tree cutting, paper waste, and the problem of dried leaves. These problems are
bigger than what everyone assumes they are.

It indicates that there is a significant difference between and among the assessments of two
groups of respondents in terms of ingredients. Procedural methodology, Durability, and
Usability. The overall weighted mean of the science teachers is 3.51, while the students
acquired 3.11. The variance of Science teachers was 0.136, while the Students acquired
0.0972. The T-critical value is 2.306 while the t computed is 2.306. Therefore, it accepts Ho. It
indicates that there is no significant difference between the tree-produced paper and leaf-
produced paper in terms of ingredients. Procedural methodology, durability, and Usability.
For further enhancement and improvement of the project, the ensuing discussions and the
recommendations proposed are as follows: use more paper than the dried leaves. The
respondents also recommended using thickeners, like cornstarch syrup, for the molding
process.
