Definitions

  • Lignin from hardwood, coniferous wood and annual plants shows a high solubility in many polar and alkaline media after extraction / recovery in the form of, for example, kraft lignin, lignosulfonate or hydrolysis lignin.
  • Lignins show a glass transition at temperatures of mostly 80 ° C - 150 ° C. Softening changes the microscopic structure of lignin particles even at low temperatures. Lignin-containing materials are therefore usually not resistant to elevated temperatures or change their properties.
  • solubility of lignin in polar solvents such as dioxane and acetone with e.g.
  • lignin means the sum of Klason and acid-soluble lignin.
  • the dry matter also contains other organic and inorganic components.
  • WO2015018944A1 a stabilized lignin by hydrothermal carbonization, which is characterized by a softening temperature (glass transition temperature) of more than 200 ° C.
  • a stabilized lignin with a defined particle size distribution can be obtained by adjusting the pH value (WO2015018944A1).
  • lignin as a raw material for the production of particulate carbon materials, which can be used, for example, as functional fillers in elastomers (WO2017085278A1).
  • An essential quality parameter for functional fillers is the outer surface of the particulate carbon material, which is determined by measuring the STSA.
  • Such processes make use of hydrothermal carbonization of a lignin-containing liquid, usually at temperatures between 150 ° C and 250 ° C. Due to the high reactivity of the lignin at such temperatures, a fine adjustment between pH-value, ionic strength and lignin content of the lignin-containing liquid as well as the temperature and the time of the hydrothermal is necessary to achieve high specific surface areas Carbonation required. This is achieved by setting the pH value in the alkaline range, usually to values above 7.
  • particulate carbon materials For such particulate carbon materials, different applications in materials open up compared to the respective starting lignins. For example, due to the low solubility of less than 40% and a specific surface area of more than 5 m 2 / g and less than 200 m 2 / g in elastomers, they can be used as reinforcing fillers and completely or partially substitute for carbon black.
  • the disadvantage of this process is the low yield, which is usually between 40% and 60%.
  • a further disadvantage of this method is the high cost of adapting the properties of the lignin-containing liquid (pH value, ionic strength, lignin content) to the process parameters of the hydrothermal carbonization (temperature and residence time) in order to achieve ever higher specific surface areas. While it is easy to achieve surfaces in the range of 5 m 2 / g up to 40 m 2 / g, the achievement of specific surface areas above 40 m 2 / g is more likely in the laboratory than on an industrial scale due to the required sensitivity of the above coordination possible. It can be assumed that such an adaptation with the aim of increasing the specific surface area leads to a reduction in the yield.
  • Kang et al. suggests the addition of 37g formaldehyde based on 100g dry lignin at a solids concentration of 20% (100ml of a 2.8% formaldehyde solution based on 25 g dry matter obtained by drying black liquor with 30% lignin based on the dry matter).
  • This prior art attributes the increase in yield to the polymerization between formaldehyde, the solid of the black liquor and the carbonization products formed from this solid (page 716, last paragraph).
  • Disadvantage of this prior art is the high specific dosage of formaldehyde of 37g to 100g of lignin, the high ash content of the dry matter used and the products made from it, - the polymerization between formaldehyde, the solid of the black liquor and the carbonization products formed from this solid and the associated Restricting the use of the product to fuel applications.
  • the aim of the present invention is to find a process which leads to a stabilized lignin which is suitable for material applications with a high yield.
  • the object of the invention is to provide a method which reduces the solubility of the lignin in alkaline and / or polar media - increases or eliminates the glass transition temperature of the lignin, leads to a stabilized lignin with advantageous particle properties and has a high yield.
