Hello , I hope you might be able to help me.
I am hoping to find any information of natural or inexpensive additives to mix into paper pulp to achieve to a much higher strength finished paper. I want to make super strong dense paper.
Kind Regards ,
Carlos Sanchez

Carlos, please let us know what you intend to use the paper for as there are most likely papers already available that you don't have to make yourself.

I am experimenting with vacuum and silicone mounds in the hope of creating multi- layered compressed sculptural forms that are solid and hopefully as strong as wood. In other words I would like to take many layers of highly compressed paper pulp to back to wood.
I want to use something in the pulp slurry to give the finished item more strength .
I know that starch can used . Just wanted to know the specifics of using that plus anything else that could be added.
I live on a very small island in the Philippines and access to things and materials is very limited ,so I hope to find something that is easy to obtain
Thank you,
Carlos
