Objective To improve the comprehensive properties of oxidized starch. Methods The non- boron starch adhesive was prepared using the potassium permanganate as oxidizing agent and as the cross-linking agent supplanting borax. The effects of FeCl3, inorganic filler and polymer on the properties of the oxidized starch adhesives ( such as viscosity, initial bonding strength, water resistance and bonding strength) were investigated. Results The result showed that not only the viscosity and initial bonding strength of the oxidized starch adhesives of the cross-linking agent was better than that of borax, but also both of the compatibility between the cross-linking agent nd inorganic filler and polymer was better than that of borax. Conclusion The performances ( such as water resistance and bonding strength) of the oxidized starch adhesive using the cross-linking agent are better than that of borax.
