Abstract
A structural corrugated paper board for use in forming boxes which incorporates two fluted layers bonded peak to peak enclosed in two outer liners. By increasing board thickness and concentrating strength in the outer liners and eliminating the inner liner between the fluted layers improved edge compression and overall strength per unit weight is improved.
Claims3
A method of forming a corrugated structural paperboard panel comprising two outer layers of flat sheet and two inner fluted layers bonded together at the flute peaks which consists of:
- (a) separately passing two strips of paperboard mediums over corrugating rollers to form two fluted layers having flute peaks;
- (b) applying adhesive to said peaks of at least one of the two fluted layers;
- (c) aligning fluted layers and bringing the flute peaks into flute tip to flute tip contact to adhere the two fluted layers together;
- (d) maintaining the pitch of the adhered flutes and maintaining the flute tips to flute tips in contact until the adhesive has cured;
- (e) and subsequently bonding two flat sheets to the fluted layers to form the two outer liners.
