Sustainable afterglow room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) materials, especially afterglow RTP structural materials, are crucial but remain difficult to achieve. Here, an oxidation strategy is developed to convert lignin to afterglow materials with a lifetime of ~ 408 ms. Specifically, lignin is...

Traditional cellulose wrapping paper existing many problems, such as poor barrier, easy water absorption, etc. Herein, cellulose, polylactic acid non-woven fabric and antibacterial short fiber as raw materials, via wet papermaking process, prepared a biodegradable and antibacterial composite paper...

Bamboo's long-acting mold resistance is essential to its durability and applications. Cinnamaldehyde can be used to protect bamboo against microorganisms, but bonding linkages are easily broken, resulting in poor anti-mold performance. In this study, for the first time, cinnamaldehyde was...

Lignin, as the second most abundant biomass material in nature, is regarded as an ideal carbon precursor due to the presence of a larger amount of aromatic ring structural unit. Carbon nanospheres, as one of the vital members of carbon materials, are promising advanced materials for various areas....

An ionization difference UV-Vis method (Δε-spectrum method) is the most potentially simple method for fast quantitation of phenolic hydroxyl groups (ph-OH) in lignin. However, the underestimated results were calculated from the conventional Δε-spectrum method using one- or two-point wavelengths...

Lignin is considered an ideal precursor for porous carbon materials on account of its rich aromatic entities and high carbon content. Modulating the molecular structure of lignin is of paramount importance in controlling the carbon structure. In this work, a solvent-induced self-assembled strategy...

The condensation of lignin under acidic conditions inhibited the subsequent value-added utilization of lignin, and the condensed lignin covered the biomass surface. Here, a method of benzenesulfonic acid pretreatment combined with nucleophilic reagents promoted pyrolytic saccharification and lignin ...

To clarify the interactions between holocellulose and lignin, the hydrolysis behaviors of sawdust, holocellulose, lignin, and holocellulose-lignin mixture (HLM) in subcritical water were investigated in the present study, where HLM acted as a model of sawdust without covalent linkages between...

Round bamboo has drawn more and more attention in architecture, decoration and recreational products. Splitting brings some safety problems, which shorten the service life of round bamboo. In this paper, three schemes were adopted as follows to solve the problem: round bamboo was impregnated in...

A closed-loop wooden pallet rental system was considered in this study, which involved a wooden pallet manufacturer, a wooden pallet leasing company, and several customers. To solve the joint optimization problem of pallet lease pricing and purchase volume under recycling and reusing mode, a...
