Aqueous Dispersions of Esterified Lignin Particles for Hydrophobic Coatings

An aqueous biopolymer dispersion coating system was synthesized utilizing softwood kraft lignin and a long chain organic acid. The chemical treatment of lignin was a two-step procedure, which first consisted of hydroxyethylation of the phenolic groups on lignin utilizing ethylene carbonate and an al...
