Abstract
AbstractKraft lignin was treated with dicarboxylic aliphatic (sebacoyl) or aromatic (terephthaloyl) acid chlorides in N,N‐dimethylacetamide or N‐methyl‐2‐pyrrolidone as solvents in the presence of triethylamine or pyridine as catalysts. The polyester gels obtained were characterized by IR after specific extractions and the chemical incorporation of lignin was proved unambiguously. Their thermal behaviour was determined by DSC and TGA; they are amorphous and stable up to 200°C in a nitrogen atmosphere. The reactivities of the two types of hydroxyl group (aliphatic and phenolic) were assessed from model reactions carried out in the same conditions.
