The study used the Randomized Block Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four treatments and one replication. The treatments were T₁ (100g garlic skin +100g of starch dissolved and cooked in IL of water.), T2(100g garlic skin + 50g of starch dissolved and cooked in IL of water.), T3(100g garlic skin + 25g of starch dissolved and cooked in IL of water.) and T4(100g garlic skin + 75g of starch dissolved and cooked in IL of water.). The following were subjected to chi-square for test significance. Garlic skin was gathered at Noveleta, Cavite. The materials were washed, soaked and boiled for one hour in a dye solution (100g caustic soda and IL of water) to soften the fiber strands. The fibers were cleaned and blend to make it fine. Then the fibers were washed in order to get the fibers. After washing the fiber add 500ml of zonrox and IL of water for one hour to make it clean. Fibers were washed in order to remove the excess chemicals. And were placed in a basin with starch and then stirred. The fibers were poured into the screen. The pulp that was poured in the screen was covered with cheesecloth and the covered sheet was pressed by the rolling pin to remove the excess water and to flatten the fibers. The cheesecloth with fibers was released into the screen and was hang until dried. The writability, texture and tensile strength were tested and analyzed. Results showed that the four treatments have a significant difference in terms of writability and texture. Because the chi-square value (see Table 1-4) is greater than the tabular values at 0.05 level, it was revealed that T, and T4 was the least different from To in terms of writability with a chi-square value of 7.84 respectively. And T2 and T4 in terms of texture with a chi-square value of 10.58 and 8.5 respectively. Finally, the tensile strength of the paper from garlic skin shows that T, obtained the highest score of 7.27 N/cm³, It was followed by Ta 5.81 N/cm³ then T₂ with the score of 4.84 N/cm³ and T, got the lowest score in terms of tensile strength. Furthermore, it was suggested that garlic skin can be utilized as a raw material in making paper, because of the cellulose fiber that was present in garlic skin.

The study was conducted at Cavite Sate University Rosario Campus. This study aimed to: determine the quality of paper made from garlic skin; determine the difference in quality of commercial paper and paper made from garlic skin.

The study used the Randomized Block Complete Block Design (RCBD) with four treatments and one replication. The treatments were T₁ (100g garlic skin +100g of starch dissolved and cooked in IL of water.), T2(100g garlic skin + 50g of starch dissolved and cooked in IL of water.), T3(100g garlic skin + 25g of starch dissolved and cooked in IL of water.) and T4(100g garlic skin + 75g of starch dissolved and cooked in IL of water.). The following were subjected to chi-square for test significance.

Garlic skin was gathered at Noveleta, Cavite. The materials were washed, soaked and boiled for one hour in a dye solution (100g caustic soda and IL of water) to soften the fiber strands. The fibers were cleaned and blend to make it fine. Then the fibers were washed in order to get the fibers. After washing the fiber add 500ml of zonrox and IL of water for one hour to make it clean. Fibers were washed in order to remove the excess chemicals. And were placed in a basin with starch and then stirred. The fibers were poured into the screen. The pulp that was poured in the screen was covered with cheesecloth and the covered sheet was pressed by the rolling pin to remove the excess water and to flatten the fibers.
