METHODOLOGY

O Problem
4 How can we make a durable corkboard out oI banana peelings bonded with
aIIordable yet eIIective adhesive material through an environmentally Iriendly
procedure?


O Objective
To be able to compare banana corkboards bonded with varying amounts oI
corn Starch, Styro-gasoline mixture, Zoy Paste base on its eIIecivity,
aIIordability,and availability.
O Hypothesis
4 corn Starch, , Zoy Paste , Styro-gasoline mixture is eIIective more eIIective
most eIIective.
O Materials
4 500 g oI Pulverized banana peelings
4 dhesive materials
500 grams oI cornstarch
Styro-gasoline Mixture
O 500 g StyroIoam
O 500 ml oI Gasoline
500 grams oI Zoy
Grinder or a mortar and pestle
4 500 ml water
I. Procedure
a. Preparation OI Materials
i. Pulverization oI Banana Peelings
. wash Banana peelings with water
2. dry These Ior seven days
3. pulverize Dried Banana Peelings by a grinder or a mortar and
pestle.
ii. Preparation OI cornstarch
. boil 300 g oI cornstarch with 500 ml oI water Ior 25 minutes
2. boil 500 g oI cornstarch with 500 ml oI water Ior 25 minutes
3. boil 700 g oI cornstarch with 500 ml oI water Ior 25 minutes
iii. Preparation oI Styro gasoline mixtures
. 300 grams oI StyroIoam shall be mixed with 500 ml gasoline.
2. 500 grams oI StyroIoam shall be mixed with 500 ml gasoline
3. 700 grams oI StyroIoam shall be mixed with 500 ml gasoline
iv. Preparation oI Zoy Mixtures
. mix 300 g oI Zoy with 500 ml water.
2. mix 500 g oI Zoy with 500 ml water.
3. mix 700 g oI Zoy with 500 ml water.
b. The making oI corkboards: the Iollowing are tables oI proportioned amouns oI
corkboard o varing amouns oI adhesive maerials.
i. Set up A.) Pulverized banana peelings and Varying amounts oI corn Starch

c. ctual Experimentation 500 g oI pulverized banana peelings shall be divided
into 3 wherein each group shall be mixed with 3 varying amounts oI each
adhesive materials to be able to test which oI these materials has a maximum
eIIect on the corkboard`s durability.
i. EIIectively
. Durability is measured by number oI coins a corkboard I can hold.
2. Water resistance is obtained by spilling varying amouns oI water
ml
3. Capacity to be pressed is measured by the pins which could
puncture the corkboard.
