Changes of Lignin Molecular Structures in a Modification of Kraft Lignin Using Acid Catalyst

The purpose of this study is to modify lignin for better blending with general purpose synthetic polymers. The possible advantages by using this modification would be cost reduction, better physical properties, and biodegradability. In this study, butyrolactone-modified lignin (BLL) and tetrahydrofu...
