The potential of X-ray characterizations to lignin and insights from Bright Day Graphene

Publicerat 14 February, 2023

Welcome to a webinar about, among other things, the potential of X-ray characterizations for lignin, as well as the potential of the new material Grapholium™ made from lignin. We are visited by Dr. Shun Yu, researcher specialist in X-ray scattering/spectroscopy at RISE, and Anna Carlsson, CTO of Bright Day Graphene.

When: February 28, at 2-3 PM (concludes with an open discussion for those who want to stay until 3:15 PM)
Where: Digital via Zoom

The potential of X-ray characterizations to lignin

Dr. Shun Yu is a researcher and technical specialist in X-ray scattering/spectroscopy at RISE. His research interests focus on the structural and properties characterization of sustainable materials by using synchrotron-radiation-based X-ray characterizations.

The presentation from Dr. Shun Yu will show the potential of X-ray characterizations to lignin and related materials. In the presentation, you will first be guided through a basic introduction to synchrotron radiation light sources, like the Swedish national laboratory MAX IV, and key X-ray techniques. Then, some research cases of X-ray characterization on lignin and lignin-derived material will be provided, covering both scattering and spectroscopy applications.

Insights from Bright Day Graphene

Anna Carlsson is the CTO of the start-up Bright Day Graphene and the inventor of the graphene material that is produced from lignin.

Her talk will be about Bright Day, the material Grapholium™, and the plans for the future!
