Wood Products

121
Wood products encompass a broad range of materials crafted from wood strands, veneers, lumber, and even waste wood-like shreds, designed for both structural and nonstructural purposes. Various specialized wood products have been developed to enhance strength, durability, and versatility in building applications.
Glue-laminated wood, often referred to as glulam, combines multiple smaller pieces of dimensional lumber using adhesives to form a single, larger piece. Cross-laminated timber consists...

Laminins are the Adhesive Proteins of Basal Lamina00:55

Laminins are the Adhesive Proteins of Basal Lamina

2.2K
Laminins are heterotrimeric proteins with high molecular mass found in the extracellular matrix. Each laminin molecule is composed of three chains, viz. alpha, beta, and gamma, coded by five, four, and three paralogous genes, respectively. Laminins are categories based on the compositions of the three chains.
In humans, the five forms of alpha chains are LAMA 1, LAMA 2, LAMA 3, LAMA 4, and LAMA 5. The four forms of beta chains are LAMB 1, LAMB 2, LAMB 3, and LAMB 4. The three forms of gamma...

Background:

  • Lignin is the most abundant aromatic biopolymer, offering a low-cost, sustainable resource.
  • Additive manufacturing (3D printing) presents a promising route for creating lignin-based materials with tailored structures and properties.
  • The practical application of lignin in advanced materials is hindered by challenges in processing and property control.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide a comprehensive review and outlook on the state-of-the-art of 3D printing of lignin and lignin-based composites.
  • To critically assess the key challenges and opportunities in this rapidly developing field.
  • To enhance the fundamental understanding of how material properties influence 3D printing behavior and final product performance.

Main Methods:

  • Review of existing literature on 3D printing of pristine lignin and lignin-based composites.
  • Analysis of the impact of lignin structure, morphology, and modifications on rheological properties.
  • Evaluation of the mechanical, physical, and chemical performance of 3D printed lignin-based materials.

Main Results:

  • Detailed overview of current 3D printing techniques applicable to lignin.
  • Understanding of how various modifications (physical, chemical, biological) and compositions affect the printability and performance of lignin materials.
  • Identification of key challenges in achieving desired macro- and microstructures and properties.

Conclusions:

  • 3D printing holds significant potential for the high-value utilization of lignin in sustainable engineering.
