Acid-Catalyzed Solvolysis of Softwood in Caprylyl Glycol to Produce Lignin Derivatives
ACS OmegaGlycol lignin (GL) is produced via the acid-catalyzed solvolysis of softwood meal using glycols such as polyethylene glycol. The physicochemical and thermal properties of GL are expected to be controllable by varying the glycol type. In this study, caprylyl glycol (CG), which is a biobased glycol derived from the caprylic acid component of coconut and ...

Lignin‐Based Solid Polymer Electrolytes: Lignin‐Graft‐Poly(ethylene glycol) [PDF]
Macromolecular Rapid Communications, 2020 AbstractLignin is an aromatic‐rich biomass polymer that is cheap, abundant, and sustainable. However, its application in the solid electrolyte field is rare due to challenges in well‐defined polymer synthesis. Herein, the synthesis of lignin‐graft‐poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and its conductivity test for a solid electrolyte application are demonstrated.
