Lignin. Structural organisation and fractal properties
نویسندگان
چکیده
The results of investigations of the topological and supramolecular structures of lignins are considered. The experimental data on the hydrodynamic and conformational properties of dilute solutions of hardwood and softwood lignins are generalised. The relationship between hydrodynamic and fractal properties of ligninmacromolecules is analysed and the applicability of various fractal concepts is discussed. Good prospects of using the fractal approach for the study of amorphous polymers with complex topological and supramolecular structures are demonstrated. The bibliography includes 174 references.

Structural Organisation of the Wood Polymers in the Wood Fibre Structure
The organization of the major polymers in the wood fiber has a large impact on the properties of the structure. Numerous studies have been devoted to the cellulose microfibril arrangement, providing the longitudinal strength of the fiber, while less is known regarding the structural organization of other components, such as hemicelluloses and lignin. For the hemicelluloses, as being part of the...
متن کاملAnalysing Enterprise Models from a Fractal Organisation Perspective - Potentials and Limitations
The paper focuses on the use of the fractal paradigm in enterprise modeling. It investigates whether the properties of fractal organizations can be applied in business analysis and whether this results in useful outcomes and new insights. Based on an adaptation and operationalization of properties of fractal organizations, two real-world cases are analyzed using the adapted properties. The cont...
متن کاملApplicability of GPC, GC-MS and 13C NMR techniques and DFRC method in comparative structural studies of Lignin
In this research, the characteristics of CMP dioxane lignin (hardwood origin) and soda bagasse lignin (ethanol soluble fraction) and dioxane lignin of bagasse were studied using gel permeation chromatography, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and 13C NMR spectroscopy and DFRC degradation procedure. The results indicated that the main structural units in lignins are phenyl propane skeletons b...
متن کاملTransmission properties of one dimensional fractal structures
In this paper, the optical properties of one dimensional fractal structures are investigated. We consider six typical fractal photonic structures: the symmetric dual cantor-like fractal structure, the asymmetric dual cantor-like fractal structure, the single cantor-like fractal structure, the symmetric dual golden-section fractal structure, the asymmetric dual golden-section fractal structure a...
متن کاملSupramolecular self-assembled chaos: polyphenolic lignin's barrier to cost-effective lignocellulosic biofuels.
Phenylpropanoid metabolism yields a mixture of monolignols that undergo chaotic, non-enzymatic reactions such as free radical polymerization and spontaneous self-assembly in order to form the polyphenolic lignin which is a barrier to cost-effective lignocellulosic biofuels. Post-synthesis lignin integration into the plant cell wall is unclear, including how the hydrophobic lignin incorporates i...
