Synthesis of bio-polymers starting from deconstructed lignin LIONEL FREDERIC OLIVIER LONGE 10.26180/5d25674f362a2 https://bridges.monash.edu/articles/thesis/Synthesis_of_bio-polymers_starting_from_deconstructed_lignin/8848904 Lignin is a natural biopolymer found in wood. It contains useful chemicals but is very difficult to degrade and break down. In this work, we study lignin degradation by enzymes systems. We further focus on degradation product as building block to create new biobased renewable plastics and polymers. 2019-07-10 04:19:25 lignin depolymerisation biodegradation enzymes laccase repolymerisation biomass biobased biobased polymer hyperbranched lignin peroxidase manganese peroxidase TBDMP lignin complexes lignin demethylation lignin demethoxylation antioxidant radical scavenging Enzymes Biocatalysis and Enzyme Technology Organic Green Chemistry Polymers and Plastics Polymerisation Mechanisms
