This research is to study and develop natural pulp materials for packaging. This is the agricultural waste. To benefit commercially To build capacity and capability in economic development and environmental conservation Is the creation of packaging work Formed in sheets and shapes using natural materials such as mulberry paper pineapple paper. And banana paper Then design and create the packaging. To test the properties. According to the standard packaging. They also sought satisfaction in the form and use of natural pulp materials. Include the packaging according to the case study. Research indicates that When developing pulp quality The banana paper can not be printed. Can print lines. But screen printing is not suitable for banana paper. Foil printing case when mulberry paper and pineapple paper Foil printing Printing lines Can be done well on mulberry paper and pineapple paper. Death images can be printed on all three types of paper but the screen is not good. Sealing material from natural pulp onto corrugated paper. From the test it was found that the amount of adhesive that was suitable for sealing was between 20-30 mg. If the adhesive was less than 20 milligrams only mulberry paper was sealed. The amount of glue at 50 milligrams is the amount of glue is too high causing all three types of paper to rot. Because of the adsorption of glue to the pulp. Packaging material from natural pulp. Fold of banana paper that does not pass the test. The banana paper is high in strength. When folding the packaging causes the pulp to split along the crease. Can not be molded. Evaluation of the satisfaction with the form and use of packaging materials from natural pulp. It was found that the average value of paper pulp suitable for packaging materials from natural pulp was the most agreeable paper. Secondly paper shreds are very popular and the last one is banana paper. Moderate agreement

This research is a study of the Mekong Basin Craft. To develop new product models to increase commercial value. Study on handicrafts and the Mekong River Basin. To bring identity to the design of decorative products. Combined with the use of contemporary Thai art to help design to enhance the product. The study of home decor from the Mekong River Identity Model from Interviews with Design Experts Conclusion on the production and design of the model that the researcher has given the expert to determine whether it is appropriate. Researchers have adapted the style of home decoration. The manufacturer can actually model. A questionnaire on the style of home decoration 100 people which results as follows. Functional front Average 4.6 was the most comfortable. Average safety was 4.75. The average design was 4.7. Overall satisfaction was at the highest level.

This research had an aim for studying the printing process of LACCIFER LACCA KERR. (LAC) on cotton and polyester fabric. The Lac dye was extracted by using Sodium hypochlorite solution Sodium hydroxide Hydrogen peroxide and diethyl ether then Acetic acid was used for dye sedimentation. Thenthe printing condition and color fastness to washing crocking and light were examined. The efficiency of solution for extraction process were found Diethyl ether > Sodium hypochlorite solution > Sodium hydroxide > Hydrogen peroxide respectively. The hot air was suitable fixation process for cotton and polyester printing. The cotton fixation was 150oC for 5 minutes it is 11.87 in color strength. And the polyester fabric was fixed at 220oC for 3 minutes the 8.27 color strength was shown. The both of cotton and polyester were printed with Lac dye had the good color fastness to crocking and light and moderate in washing fastness. This study can apply the Lac dye on cotton and polyester fabric by a printing technique without mordanting. Then it can reduce some chemicals in the textile printing industry. This process can applied and transfer for small enterprise for Lac value added appication.

This study of the role of family locals and community in enhancing the quality of elderly people’s lives in central area by means of Sufficiency Economy theory collected the data from people. It aims 1) to study the role of family locals and the community to enhance the quality of elderly people’s life in Thailand’s central region; 2) to analyze factors related to the quality of elderly people’s lives; and 3) to identify ways of encouraging the development of elderly people to prepare them to be part of the society of elderly people in the ASEAN region.

The results from the focus group regarding the quality of elderly people’s life can be summarized as follows: 1) The development of the quality of life of elderly people is based on the concept of “Strong community and people through the development and adaptation of the theory of the Sufficency Economy”. 2) The development of the quality of elderly people’s lives by means of religion: emphasizing the Buddhist way of life and local wisdom and culture to teach family members to be a grateful and loyal and to be a good person for the family and local community. 3) The quality of life of elderly people can be improved by implementing laws informed by morality to encourage generosity between family locals and community to solve the problems of elderly people. 4) The quality of life of elderly people locals and the community is based on mutual respect living together naturally according to the concept of the Sufficiency Economy in order to support large numbers of elderly people in the future. Suggestions arising from this research and from other ideas from participants include increases in government funds budgeted to support elderly people and the creation by local government of projects and activities for elderly people. In addition the participants also perceive the need for a chance for the elderly to study and learn in the local elderly school without age limit as a form of life-long learning. The participants also suggested the idea of evaluating the systems of schools for elderly people according to the “cheerfulness and happiness” of learners rather than by any other method. Connections between the schools for elderly learners in the central area should be co-ordinated so as to create more projects and activities.
