| Abstract Scope |
Biomass has become an important source of raw material for designing novel materials. The important constituents of raw materials are cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin. In this presentation, I will use lignin as a case study and review different types of materials which can be designed from lignin. Some examples are lignin based composites, foams, and tailored nano-particles. It is expected that these materials can be used for multi-functional applications. |
