Beskrivning

This book systematically discusses the structure and characteristics of lignocellulosic biomass, highlighting the lignin biosynthesis pathway and the role of lignin in LCBs for enduring abiotic stress. It presents biochemistry, structural characterization, and tools and techniques for qualitative and quantitative lignin analysis. The book explores the lignin modification approaches using physical, chemical, and biological methods for the generation of high-value compounds for widespread applications.Examines the role of lignin-modifying enzymes in lignin degradation and xenobiotic compounds, and greener catalysis for environmental applicationsDescribes lignin chemistry and lignin-based materials and their applications as polymers, composites, coatings, green adhesives, nanofibers, and precursors for specialty chemicals.Explains the role of lignin in bioenergy, biorefinery, biomaterials, and biomedical applicationsDiscusses the role of lignin as an important constituent and futuristic biomaterial for a wide range of applications, from simple specialty chemicals to complex pharmaceutical coatings and drug delivery systems.Readers in the disciplines of Materials and Chemical Engineering will find this reference to be a valuable resource.
