Interfacial Stabilization of Fiber-Laden Foams with Carboxymethylated Lignin toward Strong Nonwoven Networks

ACS APPLIED MATERIALS & INTERFACES, 8(30), 19827–19835.

By: S. Li n, W. Xiang*, M. Jarvinen*, T. Lappalainen*, K. Salminen* & O. Rojas n

author keywords: foam formingair/liquid interfaces; carboxymethylated lignin; foamability; lignin adsorption
TL;DR: CML-based foams were found to be suitable carriers of cellulosic fibers and have opened the possibility for integrating fully biobased systems in foam-forming, an emerging option to increase the effective solids content in the system without compromising the quality of formed nonwoven materials while achieving reductions in water and energy consumption.
