The Catalytic Valorization of Lignin for the Production of Renewable Chemicals

TL;DR: Biomass is an important feedstock for the renewable production of fuels, chemicals, and energy, and it recently surpassed hydroelectric energy as the largest domestic source of renewable energy.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lignin Depolymerization and Conversion: A Review of Thermochemical Methods

TL;DR: The structure of lignin suggests that it can be a valuable source of chemicals, particularly phenolics as discussed by the authors, but it is the major challenge for converting it into value-added chemicals.
Journal ArticleDOI

Towards Quantitative Catalytic Lignin Depolymerization

TL;DR: Combination of base-catalyzed lignin hydrolysis with addition of boric acid protecting agent shifts the product distribution to lower molecular weight compounds and increases product yields beyond 85%.

The occurrence and reactivity of phenoxyl linkages in lignin and low rank coal

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of the chemistry of coal under thermal and radiative conditions, and the experimental procedures to measure bond dissociation enthalpies and the thermochemical aspects of the phenoxyl linkages, including the effect of substitution.

A structural model of softwood lignin

TL;DR: In this paper, various degradation products from soft and hardwood lignins by hydrolysis with dioxanewater and catalytic hydrogenolysis are discussed and a structural model is proposed mainly based on these degradation products.

Kraft lignin in polyurethanes I. Mechanical properties of polyurethanes from a kraft lignin–polyether triol–polymeric MDI system

TL;DR: In this paper, polyurethanes with various NCO/OH ratios and kraft lignin contents were synthesized by polymerization of kraft Lignin (free of the low and high molecular weight fractions), a propylene-oxide-based polyether triol and polymeric MDI in tetrahydrofuran solution.
