Abstract
Lignins from different sources, namely papermaking processes or biomass refineries vary widely in terms of structure, average molecular weight and polydispersity as a function of both the actual species used and their mode of isolation. However, they all share two common features; they are always in the form of solid particles and they all bear phenolic and aliphatic hydroxy groups, albeit in different proportions. Hence, the utilization of lignins in polymeric materials either as fillers, blends or as macromonomers can be applied in principle to all samples, provided that their specific characteristics have been carefully assessed.1-6
