The invention relates to a composition, such as an adhesive and/or injectable composition, comprising at least or consisting of: ground plant seeds, protein isolate, starch or mixture thereof, a metal oxide, a plasticizer, and optionally, water.

The invention also concerns an article and a lignocellulosic-based composite comprising said composition.

A water-based adhesive for the manufacture of laminated cellulosic boards includes monolayer graphene oxide as a glue enhancer. Laminated cellulosic boards may be obtained by providing cellulosic plies, applying a water-based adhesive, and contacting the surface of another cellulosic ply to the first cellulosic ply. A method for producing the water-based adhesive includes mixing starch, water and glue enhancer. The glue enhancer is a suspension of between 0.1 wt % and 0.001 wt % of monolayer graphene oxide in water.

Fiber-containing composites are described that include woven or non-woven fibers, and a binder that holds the fibers together. The binder may include the reaction product of a starch and a polycarboxylic acid. The starch has a weight average molecular weight that ranges from 1×10.sup.6 Daltons to 10×10.sup.6 Daltons. The fiber-containing composite has an unaged tensile strength of greater than 4.0 and an aged tensile strength greater than 3.0. Also described are methods of making the fiber-containing composites. The methods may include applying a binder composition to fibers to form coated fibers, measuring a moisture content of the coated fibers, and curing the coated fibers in a curing oven to form the fiber-containing composite. The binder composition may include a starch having a weight average molecular weight that ranges from 1×10.sup.6 Daltons to 10×10.sup.6 Daltons, and a polycarboxylic acid.
