Rheology of Polyacrylonitrile/Lignin Blends in Ionic Liquids under Melt Spinning Conditions

Lignin, while economically and environmentally beneficial, has had limited success in use in reinforcing carbon fibers due to harmful chemicals used in biomass pretreatment along with the limited physical interactions between lignin and polyacrylonitrile (PAN) during the spinning process. The focus...
