LIGNICOAT Participates in RRB 2024

The LIGNICOAT project participated in the Renewable Resources and Biorefineries (RRB) Conference 2024, held in Brussels, Belgium. This event, which took place from June 5th to 7th, brought together 238 participants from 31 countries.

VTT, the Technical Research Centre of Finland, represented the LIGNICOAT project with two significant contributions:

  1. Presentation: “Fractionation of Kraft Lignin for Production of Alkyd Resin Coatings”

The presentation by VTT showcased the innovative processes developed to fractionate Kraft lignin for the production of high-performance alkyd resin coatings developed in collaboration with BARPIMO Coatings.

  1. Poster: “Production of Dispersants for Special Carbon Black by Oxidization of Fractionated Kraft Lignin”

In addition to the presentation, VTT also displayed a poster detailing the production of dispersants for special carbon black through the oxidation of fractionated Kraft lignin. This research highlights the versatility and value-added potential of lignin derivatives in various industrial applications, further highlighting the importance of lignin in the development of sustainable products.

The LIGNICOAT project’s participation in the RRB Conference 2024 provided an excellent platform to showcase its advancements and engage with a diverse audience of researchers, industry experts, and stakeholders.
