Abstract

This invention discloses a method for preparing lignin nanoparticles with uniform particle size and its applications. The method involves fully dissolving industrial lignin in an aqueous solution of inorganic salts in acetone, filtering, and then adding an aqueous solution of inorganic salts of the same concentration to complete self-assembly, resulting in a dispersion of lignin nanoparticles with uniform particle size. Centrifugation yields the lignin nanoparticles with uniform particle size. This invention provides a simple, easily controllable, and highly reproducible nanoparticle preparation method. Furthermore, compared to mechanical methods, interfacial crosslinking, and emulsion methods for preparing lignin nanoparticles, it offers advantages such as significantly shortened process flow and reduced costs, demonstrating potential for large-scale industrial production.
