Preparation of High‐Pressure Laminate With Bio‐Based Fructose‐HMF‐Amine Impregnation Resin

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 11, March 15, 2026.
This study demonstrates the use of a resin made from renewable carbohydrates, free from phenol and formaldehyde, for impregnating recycled kraft paper to produce high‐pressure laminates. The resulting bio‐based laminate samples match the mechanical performance of conventional phenol‐formaldehyde‐based samples, highlighting their potential to replace ...

The Influence of Cellulose, Lignins, and Organic Compounds on Biochemical Oxygen Demand [PDF]

open access: yes, 1963
Biochemical Oxygen Demand (B.O.D. as it is commonly called) is the oxygen, in parts per million, required during stabilization of the decomposable organic matter by aerobic bacterial action.

Ozonolysis of Lignin: From Extensive Degradation to Selective Ring‐Opening Oxidation

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 4, 25 February 2026.
Despite its potential as a renewable feedstock, lignin, a major component of plant cell walls and a by‐product of the pulp and paper industry, has long been underutilized. Historically, pulp mills employed ozonolysis, a powerful oxidative process, to delignify cellulosic fibers and break down lignin.

A Comparison of Unbleached Pulps from Cherry Heartwood and Sapwood [PDF]

open access: yes, 1978
The purpose of the project was to evaluate pulps made from cherry heartwood and sapwood. The amount of heartwood a tree has is an individual trait of the tree rather than a function of geography or environment.

Comparison of Mechanical Properties of Lignin/High‐Density Polyethylene (HDPE) Composites and Wood/HDPE Composites

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 5, February 5, 2026.
Manufacturing process and mechanical testing of lignin polymer composites. ABSTRACT Lignin is a plant‐derived, the second most abundant natural polymer, and a waste byproduct of the pulp industry. Incorporation of lignin into plastic composites using scalable approaches is commercially favored and low carbon‐cost.

Structural Colors from Ultrathin Lignin Films

open access: yesAdvanced Optical Materials, Volume 14, Issue 5, 2 February 2026.
Thickness‐dependent structural colors in ultrathin lignin films generate a full visible palette, tuned simply by solution concentration and spin speed. Abstract Structural colors offer a sustainable alternative to toxic pigments and dyes, yet their realization from lignin, the most abundant aromatic biopolymer, has remained elusive.

Transitioning of the Chemical Industry Toward a Net‐Zero Carbon Dioxide Emission Path

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, Volume 138, Issue 4, 22 January 2026.
One way to reduce the greenhouse gas footprint of the chemical industry to almost zero would be the production of the platform molecules C1‐compounds, olefins, aromatics, and ammonia by non‐fossil pathways. The rest of the chemical production chains could be essentially left unchanged, provided the process energy input is renewable.
