Enzymatic Transesterification of Kraft Lignin with Long Acyl Chains in Ionic Liquids
Valorization of lignin is essential for the economic viability of the biorefinery concept. For example, the enhancement of lignin hydrophobicity by chemical esterification is known to improve its miscibility in apolar polyolefin matrices, thereby helping the production of bio-based composites. To th...
