G. Rozmarin et al., NITRATION OF FURFURAL LIGNOCELLULOSE IN ACETIC-ACID MEDIUM - PHYSICALAND CHEMICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF NITROLIGNIN, Cellulose Chemistry and Technology, 29(5), 1995, pp. 603-613
Nitration in acetic acid medium of furfural lignocellulose, a by-produ
ct from furfural production, has been achieved. By successive precipit
ations with ethyl acetate, water, methanol, methyl ethyl ketone and me
thyl ethyl ketone/water mixture, several nitrolignin fractions were ob
tained. The obtained nitrolignins have been characterized by elemental
, analysis, FT-IR and H-1-NMR spectroscopy and thermogravimetry.
