An environmentally benign antimicrobial nanoparticle based on a silver-infused lignin core [PDF]
Nature Nanotechnology, 2015 Silver nanoparticles have antibacterial properties, but their use has been a cause for concern because they persist in the environment. Here, we show that lignin nanoparticles infused with silver ions and coated with a cationic polyelectrolyte layer form

From Grape Stalks to Lignin Nanoparticles: A Study on Extraction Scale-Up, Solubility Enhancement and Green Nanoparticle Production [PDF]
FoodsTo effectively valorize lignin, some challenges must be addressed. First, emerging techniques based on green methods may experience difficulties during the scale-up process. Secondly, the low solubility of lignin can hinder further valorization.

Performance enhancement of phenolic resin by glycol‐modified lignin
Performance enhancement of phenolic resin by glycol-modified ligninWithout using fossil resources such as petroleum and coal, which are likely to be depleted and have a large load on the environment, we studied the improvement of the performance of phenolic resin using lignin‐based natural material, which is a non ...

Lignin from Hardwood and Softwood Biomass as a Lubricating Additive to Ethylene Glycol [PDF]
Molecules, 2018 Ethylene glycol (EG)-based lubricant was prepared with dissolved organosolv lignin from birch wood (BL) and softwood (SL) biomass. The effects of different lignin types on the rheological, thermal, and tribological properties of the lignin/EG lubricants ...

Challenges in lignin valorization during biomass hydrogenolysis for ethylene glycol production
Biofuels, Bioproducts and BiorefiningThis study examined the extent to which lignin upgrading is possible when maximizing ethylene glycol (EG) production during the hydrogenolysis of lignocellulosic biomass over bifunctional tungsten–nickel catalysts. Reductive catalytic fractionation (RCF)

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.
