COVALENTLY CROSS-LINKED LIGNOCELLULOSIC COMPOSITES AND APPLICATIONS THEREOF

摘要

In one aspect, composite polymeric composition and related materials are described herein employing waste products from the agricultural and energy industries. Such composite polymeric compositions and materials can repurpose agricultural and petroleum waste products for various applications including, but not limited to, building and/or infrastructure materials. In some embodiments, a composite polymeric composition described herein comprises polysaccharides, lignin or combinations thereof covalently cross-linked via linkages comprising sulfur.
