This review considers the most recent developments in supramolecular and supraparticle
structures obtained from natural, renewable biopolymers as well as their disassembly and …

Adhesives––the resins widely used in particleboards, oriented strength boards, and
plywood––are traditionally produced from fossil-based polymers. Owing to the toxicity …

Significant progress in lignins valorization and development of high-performance
sustainable materials have been achieved in recent years. Reports related to lignin …

After being undervalued for a long-time, the potential use of lignins have gained interest as a
source of wealth from waste. Despite the complexity of lignins chemical structure, its high …

Bio-based materials are attracting more and more attention in all fields due to their improved
environmental footprint and due to the independence from petroleum resources that comes …

A huge variety of plants are harvested worldwide and their different constituents can be
converted into a broad range of bionanomaterials. In parallel, much research effort in …

The complex interlacing structure among cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin and the unique
properties of lignin itself limit the value-added utilization of the lignin. As the “upstream” …

Lignin is a readily available yet heavily underutilised resource due to its severe degree of
variability related to the plant source and to the processes employed for its isolation. Being …

Technical lignin extracted from pul** and biorefining processes provides a class of
complex and polydisperse phenolic polymers. Preparation of lignin with lower structural …

Conventional pul** processes and emerging lignocellulosic biorefineries provide a large
quantity of lignin with heterogeneous characters, including complex chemical structure and …
