Low molecular mass acetylated organosolv lignin from wheat straw and from depolymerised low sulphur organosolv wood lignin have been shown to markedly improve both the water resistance and the mechanical performance of welded dowel wood joints. The acetylated oligomers distribution and extent of acetylation of the two lignins were determined by Matrix assisted laser desorption ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry. Extensive acetylation was confirmed by CP-MAS 13C NMR spectrometry. Force–displacement measurements on welded dowel joints to which acetylated wood lignins were added showed a ductile behaviour. This is due to the interpenetration of the elastic acetylated lignin network into the more rigid composite network of the welded interphase. 相似文献
The aim of this study is to highlight the application and potentiality of oil palm based lignins in the synthesis of green phenolic resins. The delignification processes were conducted using Kraft and auto-catalyzed ethanol–water pulping processes. The extracted lignins were characterized using elemental analysis, Fourier transform-infrared, 1H and 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, molecular weight distribution (Mn, Mw and polydispersity), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The obtained FTIR results revealed that the Kraft lignin contained substantial amounts of guaiacyl units with smaller amounts of syringyl units. The molecular weight of Kraft lignin was 1564 g mol−1 which is higher than organosolv lignin at 1231 g mol−1. The activated free ring position (2.99%) of Kraft lignin was comparatively higher than that of organosolv lignin (2.06%) which was measured using Mannich reactivity analysis. Thermal analysis of Kraft lignin showed higher thermal stability compared to organosolv lignin. The structural and thermal characteristics implied that Kraft lignin had higher potential for the production of green phenolic resins when compared with organosolv lignin. 相似文献
Summary: Different lignins were converted into polyols by a chain extension reaction with propylene oxide ( PO ). Thus, soda lignin from Alfa (Stipa tenacissima) ( SL ), organosolv lignin from hardwoods ( OL ), kraft lignin ( KL ) from softwood and oxidized organosolv lignin ( OOL ) were oxypropylated in a batch reactor at 180 °C in the presence of KOH as catalyst. The ensuing polyols were characterized by FTIR and 1H NMR spectroscopy, which showed that they had incorporated poly(propylene oxide) grafts into their structure. Their viscosity varied from 5 mPa · s to infinity, depending on the Lignin / PO ratio and their hydroxy index was in the range of 100–200, which made them suitable for rigid polyurethane foam (RPU) formulations. The RPUs thus obtained had a Tg of ca. 60 °C and a thermal conductivity of ≈20 mW/m · K before ageing and ≈25 mW/m · K after accelerated ageing for 10 d at 70 °C. The analyses of the gases inside the cells showed that these were mostly closed, since the partial pressure did not decrease significantly with ageing.

Results of the characterization of coconut husk lignin by infrared (IR) and proton nuclear magnetic resonance (H-NMR) spectroscopy are presented. Lignin was extracted with both alkaline and organosolv liquors. The IR spectra of dioxane lignin were very similar to those reported for hardwood lignins. Furthermore, these results combined with those obtained from the H-NMR studies suggest that coconut husk lignin can be classified into the Lm-type lignins. These lignins are characteristic of the monocotyledon class, of which the coconut palm is a member. The H-NMR studies showed that anthraquinone significantly inhibited the occurrence of lignin condensation during the alkaline extraction with sodium hydroxide solutions. This inhibition was more intense in the lignin extracted at 150°C than in that extracted at 100°C. 相似文献
Lignin was extracted from Miscanthus × giganteus using two procedures: an aqueous-ethanol organosolv treatment and a two-step process involving a dilute acid pre-soaking step followed by an aqueous-ethanol organosolv treatment. The organosolv lignin was subjected to a comprehensive structural characterization by 13C and MALDI-TOF MS and used for the formulation of a green wood adhesive prepared with 100% natural resins. The best formulation was composed of 60% of mimosa tannin and 40% of glyoxalated lignin extracted using a 1-step organosolv treatment. This formulation, when applied to wooden test panels yielded good internal bond strength results, which was good enough to pass relevant international standard specifications for interior-grade panels. 相似文献
By using a set of lignin samples, which have been subjected to thorough analyses by the international wood chemistry community, the recently developed quantitative method of 31P NMR spectroscopy was comprehensively examined. The values of total phenolic hydroxyl groups and those of total hydroxyl groups were found to favourably compare with those obtained by other laboratories, applying independent methods of analysis. Furthermore, the application of quantitative 31P NMR spectroscopy offered additional detailed structural information for the examined lignins which was in accord with literature accounts for similar wood species and lignin preparations. More specifically, the steam explosion lignins from aspen and yellow poplar woods and that produced by ball milling/enzyme hydrolysis of cottonwood were found to contain relatively high amounts of β-O-4 structures. In contrast, the kraft, organosolv, and the acid hydrolysis processes were found to induce significant chain scission on the resulting lignins. Ball milled cottonwood lignin contained the highest frequency of β-O-4 bonds and the lowest amount of free phenolic hydroxyls. The erythro form of β-O-4 structures were invariably predominant in the lignins from aspen, yellow poplar and cottonwood, in accord with the conclusions of previous reports on hardwood lignins. Thus, the application of quantitative 31P NMR spectroscopy offered the detailed chemical composition of the examined lignins. 相似文献
In order to make better use of lignocellulosic biomass for the production of renewable fuels and chemicals, it is necessary to disrupt its recalcitrant structure through pretreatment. Specifically, organosolv pretreatment is a feasible method. The main advantage of this method compared to other lignocellulosic pretreatment technologies is the extraction of high-quality lignin for the production of value-added products. In this study, bamboo was treated in a batch reactor with 70% ethanol at 180 °C for 2 h. Lignin fractions were isolated from the hydrolysate by centrifugation and then precipitated as ethanol organosolv lignin. Two types of milled wood lignins (MWLs) were isolated from the raw bamboo and the organosolv pretreated residue separately. After the pretreatment, a decrease of lignin (preferentially guaiacyl unit), hemicelluloses and less ordered cellulose was detected in the bamboo material. It was confirmed that the bamboo MWL is of HGS type (p-hydroxyphenyl (H), vanillin (G), syringaldehyde (S)) associated with a considerable amount of p-coumarate and ferulic esters of lignin. The ethanol organosolv treatment was shown to remove significant amounts of lignin and hemicelluloses without strongly affecting lignin primary structure and its lignin functional groups. 相似文献
In this work, steam gasification of Alcell and Kraft lignins were carried out in a fixed‐bed reactor in order to produce H2 and medium heating value gas. The conversion of lignins increased from a low of 64 wt% for Alceil lignin to a high of 88 wt% for Kraft lignin with increasing steam flow rate and temperature. Maximum H2 production of 60.7 mol% was obtained at 800°C and at a steam flow rate of 15 g/h/g of Kraft lignin, whereas maximum heating value of 18000 kl/m3 of the product gas was obtained at 650°C and at 5 g/h/g of Alcell lignin. Also, the performance of a Ni‐based steam reforming catalyst for the production of H2 was studied for both types of lignin in a dual fixed‐bed reaction system. A maximum H2 production of 63 mol% was obtained at a catalyst bed temperature of 750°C and at a catalyst loading of 0.3 g for Alcell lignin. The sulfur present in Kraft lignin had detrimental effect on the catalyst performance. 相似文献
Spruce wood (Picea abies) has been subjected to delignification by oxygen under acidic conditions using different solvent media. The residual and removed lignins were submitted to permanganate oxidation and the products analyzed by GC and GC-MS. Results from the analysis of the residual lignins indicate that lignin “condensation” depends on the nature of oxidation medium. It was found that the addition of acetone to the aqueous liquor decreases both acid catalyzed and radical side reactions. Lignin “condensation” in water containing media is dominated by radical reactions. Results from the analysis of the lignin removed during oxygen delignification in an acetone/water medium indicate that significant amounts of “condensed” structures are present, which are relatively stable towards oxidation. The presence of diphenylmethane, diarylether and biphenyl type structures in the removed lignin was confirmed by CP-MAS 13C NMR spectroscopy. 相似文献
Miscanthus sinensis L. was fractionated by different reagents (ethanol, soda and soda–ethanol) in order to obtain cellulose, hemicelluloses and lignin. Characterization of original M. sinensis fibres (66.6% holocellulose, 36.1% α-cellulose, and 15.5% lignin) was done and compared with other biomass species chemical composition (alternative raw materials, agriculture residues, coniferous and leafy plants). Obtained solid fractions were chemically characterized and compared with solid fractions from other biomass products (palm oil empty fruit bunches (EFB) and rice straw) generated by similar fractionation processes (soda and organosolv). Soda process produced the solid fraction with the highest content in α-cellulose and lowest content in lignin revealing a strong fractionation effect. On the contrary, soda–ethanol process was found to present low fractionation capability. Obtained cellulose samples were characterized by FTIR to complete the chemical structure analysis. Lignin samples isolated from the liquid fractions were submitted to FTIR, 1H NMR, GPC, DSC and TGA in order to suggest suitable applications for the products based on their properties. 相似文献
Absolute molecular weights of several commercially and semi-commercially available lignins were determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC with a differential viscosity detector (DV). Solubility in THF was assured by acetylation. Polystyrene molecular weight standards were used for establishing a universal calibration curve. The lignins included those from hardwood, softwood, and sugar cane bagasse; and these were isolated by the kraft or organosolv pulping process, or by steam explosion/autohydrolysis. All lignins exhibited more or less uniform distributions with weight average molecular weights (Mw) between 3, 000 and 20, 000; with polydispersities (Mw/Mn)between 2 and 12; with Mark-Houwink-Sakurada exponential factors (α) between 0.17 and 0.35; and with intrinsic viscosities between 0.037 and 0.08 dLg?1. A significant relationship between Mw/Mn and Mw was discovered that had a correlation factor of 0.92. This relationship has the form of Mw/Mn = 0.45 (Mw 10?3 + 0.85. 相似文献
Abstract Three series of chain-extended hydroxypropyl lignins (CEEQLs), prepared fran oqanosolv and kraft lignin, were examined regarding their chemical, molecular weight and them1 characteristics. Results showed that the molar substitution (MS) of propylene oxide, which was defined as the number of propoxy repeat units which comprise the chain attached to a single reactive site on lignin, varied and affected copolymer properties. As the MS increased from 1 to 7.2, the number average molecular weight (Mg) increased while the glass transition temperature (Tg) decreased. The actual Mg observed by GPC exceeded however that expected on the basis of mass gain by derivatization. This was attributed to changes in the apparent hydrodynamic volume in relation to MS. The change in Tg with increasing MS followed the Gordon-Taylor relationship. Differences in the chemical composition of the original lignin (organosolv or Kraft) were not obvious as the lignin content of the copolymer decreased below 50%. 相似文献
