Turning wood side-streams into black pigment
The demo is organised by the Circular Biobased Materials research group from the School of Chemical Engineering
What if black ink came from trees instead of fossil fuels? It can!
We turn lignin, a side-stream from the pulp and paper industry, into black pigment and ink. Come and see the pigment powder, the ink, and printed fabrics, and meet the researchers behind it.
