Self-assembled carbon spheres prepared from abundant lignin and urea for photocatalytic and self-propelling applications

Lignin is a valuable bio-resource in the manufacturing of carbon-based functional materials, because of its large carbon content (~60%), various phenolic structural units, abundancy and sustainability. Here, we explored its use in photocatalytic and self-propelling applications. First, hydroxyl-abun...
