Investigation of Strength and Migration of Corrugated Cardboard Boxes

RCorrugated cardboard is a high-performance packaging material designed to protect and present a variety of products from agricultural products to industrial products. Because of this strength of corrugated cardboards are of great importance. In this study, E flute and BC flute corrugated cardboards were prepared by using different type of paper and their strengths were investigated. For this purpose, weight, thickness measured and edge crush test ECT were performed. Results shows that as the paper weight increase, the strength of corrugated cardboard increase. And also, migration tests were done whether corrugated cardboard is appropriate for food contact
