The corrugated box is the most popular paper packaging for transportation used for a wide range of products. It is effective, light in weight and economic in terms of cost. The structure of corrugated board consists of the linerboard and the corrugated medium. It is well known that moisture has a strong influence on the strength of paper materials. The water molecules permeating into a paper structure can attach to the OH sites in a basic cellulose unit that causes a reduction in the strength of the paper (Haslach, 2000). Thus the coatings are considered necessary to improve the barrier against the moisture of paper packaging so as to maintain its strength. Synthetic polymers, such as polyethylene (PE) and wax, have been used as the main sources of coatings in the paper industry (Gastaldi et al., 2007 and Sun et al., 2007). Because these polymers are based on crude oil, the increase in demand for their uses results in an increase in oil consumption. Furthermore, they are not degradable in the normal environment and this causes serious environmental problems. Therefore, materials based on renewable resources and agricultural wastes become a major focus of interest for use as an alternative for the production of coating
