In this inaugural issue, the Co-Editors of BioResources would like to welcome you. In your role as a reader, we welcome you to download scholarly articles and opinion pieces; this is an open-access journal, providing a maximum of potential impact.…

Eucalyptus globulus wood originating from plantations in Uruguay was subjected to continuous batch kraft cooking (CBC), applying mill-like conditions. Pulp samples were taken at different stages of CBC cooking being representative for all three cooking phases. The residual lignin was…

Lignins are important biopolymers that can be converted into value-added materials by enzymatic treatments. However, the heterogeneity of the lignin polymer makes it a challenging material to modify. Thus, chemical fractionation was used to obtain lignins with high homogeneity in…

Reactive extrusion is an attractive green route for cost-effective polymer processing, which has the potential to enhance the commercial viability of biomass-derived materials. In reactive extrusion, compatibilizers can be generated in the blend preparation through polymer-polymer grafting reactions using functionalized…

A new method for the chemical analysis of the coating in light weight coated (LWC) grade paper is described. A method has recently been developed that employs laser-induced plasma emission spectrometry (LIPS) to produce rapid and relatively inexpensive, three-dimensional profiles…
