Phenolic resins (PRs) are being widely used in many fields such as molding plastics, foams,
coatings, and semiconductor packaging owing to their good properties including corrosion …

As the most abundant renewable aromatic resource, lignin is an ideal precursor for the
production of aromatic fine chemicals. Biotransformation of lignin into 4-vinylphenol (4VP) …

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are widely used as recyclable green solvents for the
separation of lignin from lignocellulosic biomass. However, the poor permeability of DES …

In light of the depletion of petrochemical resources and increase in environmental pollution,
there has been a significant focus on utilizing natural biomass, specifically lignin, to develop …

In this Review, all known chemical methods for the conversion of renewable resources into
benzenoid aromatics are summarized. The raw materials that were taken into consideration …

A sustainable lignin bioconversion depends on the exploitation of the inherent aromaticity of
lignin for high-value aromatic products. However, the microbial valorization of lignin is …

Cellulose is the largest natural and renewable biopolymer with biodegradability and
biocompatibility and it has been considered as a promising feedstock for the clean …

Lignins are the most abundant biopolymers that consist of aromatic units. Lignins are
obtained by fractionation of lignocellulose in the form of “technical lignins”. The …

Lignin is the most affluent natural aromatic biopolymer on the earth, which is the promising
renewable source for valuable products to promote the sustainability of biorefinery …

Phenolic resin adhesives are usually synthesized using phenol and formaldehyde. Both of
them are fossil-based and the resins are not biodegradable. Replacing them with whole …
