  1. The goal of these experiments was to find a green binder that was not significantly lower than the currently used commercial binder. All binders that were not significantly different at the 95% confidence level are marked “Yes”. Only the Knox gelatin binders were significantly higher than the commercial binder.
  2. 1Samples that are not significantly different are those that perform as well as the commercial binder. All samples that are significantly different have lower values except for the gelatin, which was significantly higher. See Materials and Methods for statistical treatments.
