Preparation of lignin-based imine vitrimers and their potential application as repairable, self-cleaning, removable and degradable coatings
Jian Liu, Katrien V. Bernaerts
Abstract
The successful integration of biomass material (lignin) and the concept of dynamic imine bonds has led to the development of lignin-based vitrimers. These materials hold promise for applications in repairable and UV-shielding coatings.
