Quaternized lignin-based dye dispersant: Characterization and performance research

Preparation and Characterization of Nano-lignin Biomaterial to Remove Basic Red 2 dye from aqueous solutions

The present study prepares alkali lignin (AL) via acidification of black liquor, obtained from a pulp and paper factory. The average molecular weight of AL (equal to 2,530 g/mol) has been determined with gel permeation chromatography. AL has been modified by ethylene glycol, while lignin nanoparticles (LN) has been prepared through acid precipitation technology, their size being assessed by mea...

Preparation and Characterization of a Temperature-sensitive Lignin-based Hydrogel

A novel class of hydrogel was prepared by graft copolymerization of acetic acid lignin (AAL) and N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) in the presence of N,N'-Methylenebisacrylamide (MBAAm) as the crosslinker and H2O2 as the initiator. The impact of AAL content on the hydrogel properties were investigated in terms of their swelling behavior, thermal behavior, and interior morphology. The data showed t...

Quaternized Carboxymethyl Chitosan-Based Silver Nanoparticles Hybrid: Microwave-Assisted Synthesis, Characterization and Antibacterial Activity

A facile, efficient, and eco-friendly approach for the preparation of uniform silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) was developed. The synthesis was conducted in an aqueous medium exposed to microwave irradiation for 8 min, using laboratory-prepared, water-soluble quaternized carboxymethyl chitosan (QCMC) as a chemical reducer and stabilizer and silver nitrate as the silver source. The structure of the...
