Characterization of Licorice Root Waste for Prospective Use as Filler in more Eco-Friendly Composite Materials

The extraction of glycyrrhizin from licorice root and stolon with ethanol/water solutions leaves a lignocellulosic residue, which could be potentially applied in biocomposites. This process proved difficult in principle, given the considerable hardness of this material as received, which impedes its...
