Lignin, being the most abundant renewable aromatic polymer, exhibits immense potential in sustainable biobased epoxy adhesives. However, tedious preparation process and uncontrolled homopolymerization of epoxidized lignin hinder their large-scale production. Herein, we propose a facile one-step strategy to synthesize high-performance waterborne lignin-based adhesive based on high selectivity phenol-epoxy reaction. Owing acidity difference between phenol aliphatic hydroxyl, phenolic hydroxyl groups can be preferentially initiated with groups, which inhibit reaction polyglycidol chain propagation. The resulting nanoparticles (ELNPs) feature nanoscale (150–250 nm), low molecular weight, value (∼3.84 mmol g–1). ELNP colloidal dispersions possess zeta potentials (−34.20 mV) impressive long-term storage stability (temperature = 4–60 °C, pH 2–12). use cost-effective ELNPs as wood has shown competitive shear strength ∼14.89 MPa, comparable those commercial bisphenol A resin phenol-formaldehyde resin. thermo-curing demonstrate excellent chemical solvent resistance thermal (∼395 °C). Additionally, fabrication demonstrates good scalability (≥15 kg) viability (472 €/ton) This synthetic provides promising pathway for producing cost-efficient resins that used

In the context of transitioning toward a more sustainable use natural resources, application lignin to substitute commonly utilized petroleum-based plastics can play key role. Although is highly available at low cost and presents interesting properties, such as antioxidant UV barrier activities, its limited by reactivity, which consequence harsh conditions normally used extract from biomass. this work, glyoxylic acid (GA lignin), rich in carboxylic groups hence reactive epoxy cross-linkers, presented. GA lignin, directly extracted biomass via one-step aldehyde-assisted fractionation process, allowed preparation thermoset films coatings simple reaction with poly(ethylene glycol) diglycidyl ether glycerol cross-linkers. This allows one prepare freestanding containing up 70 wt % tunable mechanical properties covalently surface-attached 90 high solvent resistance. Both display combine excellent activity visible transparency, attractive for applications food packaging.

Lignin, being one of the main structural components lignocellulosic biomass, is considered most abundant natural source phenolics and aromatics. Efforts for its valorisation were recently explored as it mostly treated waste from heat/energy production via combustion. Among them, polymer-based lignin composites are a promising approach to both valorise fine tune properties polymers. In this work, organosolv lignin, beech wood, was used fillers in poly (lactic acid) (PLA) matrix.

Epoxy resins are critical materials in aerospace applications, yet their mechanical properties, specifically the tensile modulus, can be significantly compromised when exposed to electron irradiation space environments. To thoroughly examine this degradation, we developed an integrated research approach combining vacuum experiments with multi-scale simulations. Coarse-grained (CG) and Monte Carlo (MC) methods were employed generate necessary models primary knock-on atom (PKA) data, while molecular dynamics (MD) simulations conducted model processes. Our findings reveal that modulus percentage loss of epoxy resin stabilizes as dose approaches 1.0×101⁵ eV/cm2. The strong agreement between experimental simulation results validates accuracy methodology. In systems studied different degrees cross-linking, leads increase low cross-linked structures a maximum 21.46%, it decrease high 8.03%. This has been successfully applied investigate trends causes changes after irradiation. It used explore properties wider range polymers

Furfuryl alcohol is amongst the top platform chemicals within a modern biorefinery and widely used for poly (furfuryl alcohol) (PFA) synthesis. Nanocellulose addition to PFA can yield production of fully biomass-derived nanocomposite thermosets with improved thermomechanical properties. However, limited studies have been conducted due cellulose's hydrophilic nature its incompatibility polymer substrates. This study shows successful incorporation cellulose nanofibers nanocrystals in matrix, 4 different loading levels each type additive. Microscopy observations were employed determine dispersion into substrate, while composites' thermal properties slightly improved. A remarkable increase glass transition temperature (Tg) up 30 °C was noted all composite materials, compared neat PFA. In particular, storage modulus rubbery state significantly higher when level above 0.5 wt%. Finally, it found that FA polymerization aqueous conditions enhance formation carbonyl species through furan opening reactions, thus allowing more hydroxyls interact matrix.
