Lignin (CAS: 9005-53-2) is a three-dimensional, cross-linked, amorphous polymer formed by the radical polymerization of three phenylpropane monomers—pinene, mustard alcohol, and p-coumarol—with the molecular formula (C₉H₁₀O₃)ₙ.
Lignin appears as a brown to black solid powder. It is hydrophilic and chemically reactive, and can be modified for a wide range of applications.
