Chapter I: Introduction
A. Background of the Study
The scientific name of glue is “Cyanoacrylates”.
Glue is the chief topic in this investigatory project. Glue is widely used worldwide. From schools
to offices, from homes to buildings, glue is always present to help in individuals in their daily
lives. This material can be used in simple works or as an emergency utensil; from torn books to
stripped parts of paper works; this tool is very significant in our lives.
Glue is a sticky material (usually a liquid) that can stick two or more things together. Glue can be
made from plant or animal parts, or it can be made from oil-based chemicals. The first glues may
have been natural liquids that come out of trees when they are cut. Later people learned to make
glue by boiling animal feet, cartilage or bones. Some very strong glue is made from fish
bones, rubber or milk. Simple glue can be made at home by mixing wheat flour and water. This
glue will stick pieces of paper together. Many kinds of art can be made using glue. A collage is a
work of art made by using glue to stick colored things onto paper.
Some glue can be used to keep water out of boats, buildings or vehicles. In this case the glue may
be called caulk. Some man-made materials, including wood-like materials, are made using glues
to bind together small pieces of material or powders. These qualities of our project, the
homemade glue, really come in handy to our fellows with problems about toxics in their homes.
This project isn’t only helpful to us, but is also easy to organize in times of financial crisis and
emergencies to come.
Sub-problems
1. Is it effective?
2. Are the ingredients easy to find?
3. Is it eco-friendly?
The people who will benefit from this home-made glue are the following:
1st are we, as a Student we all need glue to sticking our test results in our notebooks.
2nd is the people who works in the office might need glue because they use it as the paste their
finished product to be submitted to their boss.
3rd is the teachers, they will need in order to paste the students test result in the notebook.
The limitations of the study that we should know is that to make homemade glue using only
materials found in our house no need to buy expensive glue. Just make your own homemade
glue, it’s easy and affordable.
Milk is a white liquid produced by the mammary glands of mammals. It is the primary source of
nutrition for young mammals before they are able to digest other types of food. Early-lactation
milk contains colostrum, which carries the mother's antibodies to the baby and can reduce the
risk of many diseases in the baby. It also contains many other nutrients. As an agricultural
product, milk is extracted from mammals during or soon after pregnancy and used as food for
humans. Worldwide, dairy farms produced about 730 million tons of milk in 2011. India is the
world's largest producer and consumer of milk, yet neither exports nor imports milk. New
Zealand, the European Union's 28 member states, Australia, and the United States are the
world's largest exporters of milk and milk products. China and Russia are the world's largest
importers of milk and milk products. Throughout the world, there are more than 6 billion
consumers of milk and milk products. Over 750 million people live within dairy farming
households. Milk is a key contributor to improving nutrition and food security particularly in
developing countries. Improvements in livestock and dairy technology offer significant promise
in reducing poverty and malnutrition in the world.
Vinegar
Are liquids consisting mainly of acetic acid (CH3COOH,) and water. The acetic acid is
produced by the fermentation of ethanol by acetic acid bacteria. Vinegar is now mainly used as a
cooking ingredient, but historically, as the most easily available mild acid, it had a great variety
of industrial, medical, and domestic uses, some of which (such as a general household cleanser)
are still promoted today. There are many types of vinegar such as: coconut, cane balsamic,
apple cider and many more.
B.Hypothesis
I, the researcher, hypothesized that my homemade glue using milk can be alternative glue encase
of emergency when there is no available glue. You can just make your own and it's easy to make
and find the materials.
C.Definition of terms
Casein glue - made from casein; used for e.g. plywood and cabinetwork
Casein- the main protein present in milk and (in coagulated form) in cheese. It is used in
processed foods and in adhesives, paints, and other industrial products.
Sodium Bicarbonate- sodium bicarbonate used in cooking, for cleaning, or in toothpaste.
Vinegar- a sour-tasting liquid containing acetic acid, obtained by fermenting dilute alcoholic
liquids, typically wine, cider, or beer, and used as a condiment or for pickling.
B. Materials
Sauce pan
Vinegar
Baking Soda
Tablespoons
Water
Empty bottle
Ladle
Milk (skimmed)
Strainer
Funnel
C. Procedure
Prepare the sauce pan and the stove.
Pour the milk into the sauce pan. Wait until it boils.
Add 3 teaspoon of Vinegar. Keep stirring until the curdles are forming.
Remove the curdles from the sauce pan into the strainer.
Put back the curdles and Add baking soda and water to the sauce pan.
Wait until it boils. Add water if needed.
When bubbles appeared it means you’re done.
B.Conclusion
Therefore, I conclude that the glue that I made is effective. And it’s very useful for the students for their
school project and it’s very convenient to us.
C. Recommendation
I, the researcher, recommended that you should try my homemade glue. Why? Because it’s just like a
commercial glues. You should try making your own glue so that encase of emergency that can make in a
couple of hours.
