Compared with tetrahydrofuran and dioxane, N, N-dimethylacetamide with stronger polarity together with higher boiling point was demonstrated to be beneficial for preparing LPU particles of smaller size and enhanced binding force. It was also found that lignin domain can interpenetrate into polyurethane domain well with 43.3% lignin addition, resulting in enhanced phase mixing and better performance. In addition, relative homogeneous and smooth LPU membrane can be obtained with 2% TMP addition, while stress crack took place when TMP content was greater than 3%.展开更多

Results show that the highest yields of formic and acetic acids were, respectively, 59.6% and 11.3% at the reaction condition of 0.5 mol/L NaOH, 120% H2O2 supply and 280 ℃. These results will inform studies aiming to develop more enviromnental friendly lignin conversion processes by obtaining products beyond a CO2 end product.展开更多
