Application of lotus leaves as materials
2021/2022
I have always been curious about the commercial application of plant materials. I felt it was a pity to see the lotus leaves in my pond wither, so I began to try to see if I could process the lotus leaves into green and environmentally friendly materials for use in product manufacturing.
Experimental procedures
Lotus flowers picked from the lotus pond in late summer that have not yet withered
Comparison of the properties of different parts of lotus leaves after different treatments
Material preparation process
Material flexibility test
Maximum Load

荷之柱 < Lotus Pillar >
By using a specific ratio of lotus leaves and lotus leaf roots, a very strong material is obtained as the supporting part of the chair.
Lotus Leaf Chair
Lotus leaf : 50 %
Rhizome : 15%
Water : 20 %(before forming)
Lotus root starch : 10 %
Baking powder : 3%
Glutinous rice flour : 2%
The surface is a waterproof film of lotus root starch paste to prevent biological materials from being destroyed by the food itself.
