In order to get any information about soybean glue using Japanese ancient documents, I went to see the Paper Museum. For my analyses of historical documents in our project, Integrated Studies of Cultural and Research Resources, I'm now searching any papers about this topic.
Unfortunately, in the Paper Museum, all of exhibition panels about glues show just only "starch", and I was not able to know about these contents. But I got some basic knowledge on history of paper makings.
Next, referring to the following preliminary studies, I'm exploring reference materials of experimental glues.
