The mechanisms behind lignin dissolution with protic ionic liquids (PILs) and their influence over lignin properties remain not fully explored. In this work, physicochemical and structural features of lignins extracted ...

Klason lignins lab-isolated from two lignocellulosic biomasses emerging from the processing of agro-industrial products, Aspidosperma australe wood sawdust and Bertholletia excelsa nutshells, with different contents of ...

Known as the main source of aromatic compounds in nature, lignin possesses heterogeneous composition which has high potential to be used in many industrial purposes. Lignin has been used as retardants of fire, thermal ...
