Lignin-Based Additives for Improved Thermo-Oxidative Stability of Biolubricants
, 2021 There is an environmental concern regarding the use of petroleum-based lubricants, which are generally toxic and nonbiodegradable. Biobased lubricants, such as vegetable oils, are the alternative: they show excellent lubricity, are readily biodegradable ...

Multiscale Interfacial Engineering Enables Robust Reconstituted Wood
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Conventional adhesives used in wood composites create heterogeneous interfaces that cause stress concentration under humid or aqueous conditions, thereby compromising long‐term stability. A synergistic strategy integrating interfacial reconstruction and water‐induced regeneration transforms heterogeneous interfaces into homogeneous ones with ...

Synthesis and Characterization of Lignin-Based Polyurethane as a Potential Compatibilizer
Indonesian Journal of Chemistry, 2018 Lignin is one of the most abundant biopolymer on earth. It has polar and non-polar side due to its hyperbranched structure, but the polarity of lignin has a higher tendency than non-polarity.
