  2. Lignin is a renewable feedstock that is abundant and inexpensive but still presents challenges for its valorization. In this work, we converted functionalized lignin into broad-spectrum adhesives using thiol–silyl ether crosslinkers. The curing behavior of adhesives was investigated via rheology of their resin forms. These materials exhibit good adhesion on diverse substrates, including wood, glass, steel, aluminium, carbon fiber, and different plastics, with the most adhesion strength in the range of 1–3 MPa. These adhesives were also explored for applications, ranging from wet conditions to different mechanically responsive materials. The mechanism of adhesion was further examined to understand the bonding process.

  3. Abstract Reprocessable and biobased thermosets are prepared from two renewable feedstocks, lignin and polyamine (Priamine 1071). Lignin is oxidized to produce polycarbonyl and further reacts with polyamine to form a crosslinked network of imines. The thermoset materials are formed under heat and pressure in the absence of any catalysts. The mechanical strength and thermal properties of thermosets are tunable by changing feedstock ratios. The dynamic imine crosslinks can be associatively reformed.
