Editorial: Agility and adaptation in a dynamic business world, TAPPI Journal January 2021
ABSTRACT: As we move into 2020, it's interesting to look back at the research topics that were covered in TAPPI Journal (TJ) the previous year. Members of the TJ editorial board organized diverse special issues on lignin, coating ,forming, and diverse papermaking and biorefinery topics, which are discussed in the following sections.

Editorial: Agility and adaptation in a dynamic business world, TAPPI Journal January 2021
ABSTRACT: Being agile and adaptive in this current business world is both necessary and beneficial. Throughout last year, we all continued to both directly and indirectly experience the dynamic world where we live. As we wll know, in early 2020 the pandemic gained momentum and has fundamentally altered our daily lives, both personally in how we live and professionally in how we work.

Probing the molecular weights of sweetgum and pine kraft lignin fractions, TAPPI Journal June 2021
ABSTRACT: The present investigation undertook a systematic investigation of the molecular weight (MW) of kraft lignins throughout the pulping process to establish a correlation between MW and lignin recovery at different extents of the kraft pulping process. The evaluation of MW is crucial for lignin characterization and utilization, since it is known to influence the kinetics of lignin reactivity and its resultant physico-chemical properties. Sweetgum and pine lignins precipitated from black liquor at different pHs (9.5 and 2.5) and different extents of kraft pulping (30•150 min) were the subject of this effort. Gel permeation chromatography (GPC) was used to determine the number average molecular weight (Mn), mass average molecular weight (Mw), and polydispersity of the lignin samples. It was shown that the MW of lignins from both feedstocks follow gel degradation theory; that is, at the onset of the kraft pulping process low molecular weight-lignins were obtained, and as pulping progressed, the molecular weight peaked and subsequently decreased. An important finding was that acetobromination was shown to be a more effective derivatization technique for carbohydrates containing lignins than acetylation, the technique typically used for derivatization of lignin.
