Abstract

Recently there has been a growing concern in various industries about the carbon footprint of materials due to environmental concerns and the need to adopt renewable materials. In this context, lignin, as a recyclable bioresource with multifunctional properties, is the largest renewable aromatic biomass resource in nature, with natural antioxidant, UV-resistant, molecular structure design flexibility and biocompatibility. It is also slowly biodegradable and therefore can be used as a carbon source for soil. Incorporating lignin into composites as a feedstock for sustainable product production can significantly reduce their carbon footprint. This paper systematically discusses the current state of research on lignin-based composites and the bottlenecks that urgently need to be overcome, and looks at the focus of work on functional applications of lignin as well as the future direction of development.
