Problems solved by technology

Existing non-nanoized lignin is generally solid, which has poor compatibility with liquid polyols and is difficult to disperse in solvents; in addition, large particle lignin solids have a smaller reaction interface
Therefore, the uniformity of the prepared bio-based polymer is poor, and the main properties are also reduced, which limits the development of lignin-based polymer materials.
Nano-lignin has the advantages of small particles, easy dispersion, and large reaction interface. However, the existing nano-lignin has low hydroxyl content and low reactivity.

Embodiment 1

[0046] In order to investigate the effects of chemical hydrolysis, ultrasound and medium on the preparation of nano-lignin, the lignin particle dispersion system was prepared by chemical hydrolysis or ultrasound respectively. The results are as follows: Figure 1~4 shown.

[0047] (1) Disperse the alkali lignin directly in each medium, the results are as follows figure 1As shown, alkali lignin cannot be well dispersed in water, methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, 1,3-propanediol, tetrahydrofuran and butyl acetate, and alkali lignin particles precipitate at the bottom, indicating that the above None of the media can prepare nano lignin.

[0048] (2) Disperse alkali lignin directly in each medium, after ultrasonic treatment, the result figure 2 As shown, alkali lignin is difficult to disperse in water, isopropanol, 1,3-propanediol, tetrahydrofuran and butyl acetate, and partially disperses in methanol, ethanol and n-propanol. Therefore, it is difficult to obtain nano...

[0052] In order to determine the appropriate chemical hydrolysis conditions: hydrolysis temperature, hydrolysis time, lignin concentration, sodium hydroxide concentration, etc., the experimental results of preparing nano-lignin are given here by taking the hydrolysis time as an example.

[0053] Take alkali lignin and NaOH aqueous solution (the concentration of alkali lignin is 5wt%, the concentration of sodium hydroxide is 15wt%, and the rest is water) to react in a hydrothermal kettle (the hydrolysis temperature is 190°C, and the hydrolysis time is 0-8h), and the reaction After the end, the hydrothermal kettle is placed in room temperature water and rapidly cooled to room temperature. The pH of the above reaction solution was adjusted to 2 with 2 mol / L sulfuric acid aqueous solution, centrifugally filtered and washed with water until the reaction solution was neutral to obtain depolymerized lignin particles. The depolymerized lignin particles were put into methanol, and subj...

Embodiment 3

[0059] Take 6g of alkali lignin and 74g of NaOH aqueous solution (15wt% NaOH, 60wt% methanol), react in a hydrothermal kettle for 7 hours, and the reaction temperature is 190°C; The pH of the above reaction solution was adjusted to 2 with 2 mol / L sulfuric acid aqueous solution, centrifugally filtered and washed with water until the reaction solution was neutral to obtain depolymerized lignin particles. The depolymerized lignin particles were put into methanol, ultrasonically treated and freeze-dried to obtain a new type of nano-lignin with an average particle size of 306nm, a hydroxyl content of 20mmol / g, and an average weight-average molecular weight of 2216g / mol.

Abstract

The invention discloses novel nano lignin and a preparation method thereof. The novel nano lignin has high hydroxyl content and medium molecular weight, wherein the average particle size of the novel nano lignin is 306-1121 nm, the hydroxyl content is 8.7-20 mmol / g, and the weight-average molecular weight is 2035-3428 g / mol. According to the preparation method of the novel nano lignin, industrial lignin is taken as a raw material, sodium hydroxide is taken as a catalyst, and the novel nano lignin is prepared through chemical hydrolysis, ultrasonic treatment and freeze drying; and compared with a physical method, the nano lignin prepared by adopting a chemical hydrolysis method has the advantages of remarkably increasing the hydroxyl content of the lignin and moderately reducing the molecular weight of the lignin, and is particularly suitable for replacing petroleum-based polyol to prepare a lignin-based organic high-molecular polymer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of new lignin materials, and in particular relates to a novel nanometer lignin and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Lignin has a wide range of sources and is the second largest renewable and easily degradable natural polymer material after cellulose. Due to its rich aromatic structure and active groups such as hydroxyl groups, it has potential applications in the fields of polymer materials and the like. However, it has a wide range of sources and many separation methods, resulting in an extremely complex lignin structure and a wide molecular weight distribution. Therefore, more than 90% of industrial lignin is used as cheap fuel or filler, resulting in a great waste of resources. In order to realize the high-value utilization of lignin, the preparation of lignin into bio-based fuel, small molecule chemicals and nanomaterials has become a current hot spot. Among them, lignin nano...
