The present invention provides for a method for dissolving and/or depolymerizing lignin comprising: (a) providing a composition comprising lignin, (b) contacting the composition with a strong hydrogen donor, such as a polyol, to form a first solution, (c) incubating the first solution at a temperature equal to or less than 100° C., whereby at least 20% by weight of the lignin is dissolved, (d) optionally introducing an oxidation agent to the first solution to form a second solution, wherein the temperature of the second solution is equal to or less than 100° C., whereby lignin is depolymerized, and (e) optionally introducing an anti-solvent to the second solution to precipitate the depolymerized lignin.
本发明提供了一种溶解和/或解聚木质素的方法,该方法包括:(a) 提供包含木质素的组合物,(b) 将该组合物与强氢供体(如多元醇)接触以形成第一溶液,(c) 在等于或低于 100°C 的温度下培养第一溶液,其中至少 20% (重量)的木质素被溶解,(d) 可选地将氧化剂引入第一溶液以形成第二溶液,其中第二溶液的温度等于或低于 100°C 、(d) 可选地将氧化剂引入第一溶液以形成第二溶液,其中第二溶液的温度等于或低于 100°C,从而使木质素解聚,以及 (e) 可选地将抗溶剂引入第二溶液以沉淀解聚的木质素。
