This study dealt with the comparison of three varieties of grasses namely: Saccharum spontaneoum (talahib), Chrysopogon aciculatus (amorseco), and Axonopus compressus (carabao grass), to determine the best alternative source of paper. The preparation of paper involved the soda process wherein 50 grams of grass was mixed 18 grams of soda flakes dissolved in 1 liter of water. Then, it was followed by the bleaching process wherein the pulp from the beaten grass was mixed with 10% calcium hypochlorite solution. Finally, the bleached pulp was formed into sheets using mould and deckle. Among the three varieties of grasses used in this study Chrysopogon aciculatus (amorseco) turned out to be the best alternative source of paper. It is just as strong as the Saccharum spontaneum (talahib) and the Axonopus compressus (carabao grass) yet it is more economical.
