An improved adhesive composition having increased insulative properties is provided. The adhesive composition having improved insulative properties includes a starch component; an alkaline component; sodium tetraborate; water; and a plurality of expandable microspheres. Products having improved insulation capabilities and methods of making the products having improved insulation capabilities are also provided. The present adhesive and products including the adhesive is environmentally friendly.

A surface treatment composition comprising nanocellulose—such as microfibrillated cellulose (MFC)—and particles is provided. The particles comprise a supporting material and an active material comprising a salt of a multivalent metal. Various products comprising such a surface treatment composition and methods using said compositions are also provided.

An oyster paper and a manufacturing method thereof are provided. The oyster paper is made of 60%-70% oyster shell powder, 10%-20% polymer, 15%-17% natural biodegradation inducing agent, and 3%-5% natural biodegradation assisting additive agent, by volume ratio, which are subjected to mixing and pre-melting processing, followed by compounding and pelletizing to prepare oyster paper pellets, which are then subjected to film blowing processing to be film-blown into an oyster paper product having a thickness of 0.05-0.5 millimeters. The oyster paper possesses the quality of wood pulp paper and shows bettered stiffness and wider applications. The oyster paper also provides, after being disposed and buried, an effect of being 100% natural degradation into compost for fertilizing the soil. As such, a kind of oyster paper featuring recycling and reuse of oceanic creature waste shell and natural microorganism induced degradation for composting and recycling and a manufacturing method thereof are provided.

A method for preparing a large-area structural chromogenic pattern by ink-jet printing, a structural chromogenic pattern obtained by the method, and an anti-counterfeiting method based on a structural color change. A dispersion liquid containing mono-disperse colloidal microspheres with high index of refraction is printed onto a piece of paper by using an ink-jet printer, and nano-microspheres are arranged and assembled on the paper to obtain a micro-structure having the features of being ordered from a short distance and disordered from a long distance. A pretty structural color can be observed by means of the interaction of the structure with light, thus displaying a pattern, changing the angle of observation, changing the brightness of the structural color, and hiding and displaying the pattern. The method is simple and convenient, is widely applicable, and can achieve the preparation and anti-counterfeiting of a large-area structural color without external stimulation.
