Special Magnetic Catalyst with Lignin-Reduced Au–Pd Nanoalloy

Fabrication of Soft Magnetic Fe-based Nanoalloy

The Fe-Ni-Sb-B amorphous alloy has been prepared by a solid-solid chemical reaction of ferric trichloride, nickel chloride, antimony chloride and potassium borohydride powders at room temperature. The inductive couple plasma study indicates that the resultant is composed of Fe 5.38 %, Ni 56.19 %, Sb 29.02 % and B 0.44 %. The XRD and thermal analysis show that the alloy is a non-strict sense amo...

Impact of Reduced Lignin on Plant Fitness

and utilized before maturity or dissemination. Fecundity or clonal reproduction is controlled. Agriculturally fit Lignin content of crop plants has been reduced by traditional plant plants are those that are the most useful to humans in breeding, natural and induced mutations, and insertion of transgenes. The effects of these genes and associated lower lignin content have agricultural systems, ...

Changes of Lignin Molecular Structures in a Modification of Kraft Lignin Using Acid Catalyst

The purpose of this study is to modify lignin for better blending with general purpose synthetic polymers. The possible advantages by using this modification would be cost reduction, better physical properties, and biodegradability. In this study, butyrolactone-modified lignin (BLL) and tetrahydrofuran-modified lignin (THFL) were used for aliphatic chain modification of lignin using an acid-cat...

Kraft Lignin Depolymerization in an Ionic Liquid without a Catalyst

In this paper, the depolymerization of lignin was successfully achieved by the thermal treatment of kraft lignin in butyl-1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec7-enium chloride ([DBUC4][Cl]) without a catalyst. The thermal treatment experiments were performed in an oven at 150, 200, and 250 °C for 1 h. The changes in kraft lignin structure over the course of depolymerization were characterized by gel per...
