One of the easiest glues to make at home is casein glue, it is made by curdling milk with vinegar or another mild acid. The white curds produced become the glue.


Why does casein precipitate upon the addition of acetic acid?

The precipitation of casein in its uncombined form by the addition to milk of one or another acid forms the basis of all methods of preparation. These differ widely, however, in the subsequent purification In the method of Hammarsten, just enough alkali is added to dissolve this casein completely. The alkalinity reached in this process somewhat modifies its physical properties but probably not its composition. In the method of Van Slyke and Bosworth the last trace of calcium is removed by adding oxalate to an ammoniacal solution of the casein, but this procedure was shown to be unnecessary by Van Slyke and Baker. The present process is based in large part upon that of Van Slyke and Baker, the modifications depending upon the observation that casein forms far more soluble compounds with univalent than with bivalent bases at neutral reactions.


Why do casein precipitate only at pH 4.6?

it is because casein has an isolectric point at 4.6, milk has a pH of 6.6. Casein at this pH has a negative charge, when added with an acid, the phosphate group found in casein is protonated, and when the pH reaches to 4.6, then the casein would then be aggregated, becoming insouluble to milk
