Sulfate lignin is a very high purity product with high dispersibility and reactivity in chemical formulations. It is separated during the kraft pulping process.
Normally a versatile product with many potential end uses. Its polyphenolic structure makes it especially suitable as chemical building block for several end uses.
Sulfate lignin has phenylpropane as its structural unit and contains a large number of functional groups such as phenolic hydroxyl, methoxy, benzyl alcohol and carboxyl. These functional groups make sulfate lignin have a variety of chemical reactivity, such as alkylation, acylation, isocyanation, phenolation, etc. In addition, sulfate lignin also has certain hydrophilicity and dispersibility, which is closely related to its sulfonation degree. The higher the sulfonation degree, the better the hydrophilicity and the higher the dispersibility.
The main sulfate lignin producers in the world include Stora Enso, Ingevity, UPM, Domtar, Suzano, etc. These companies have strong strength and market share in the production, research and development and sales of sulfate lignin.
