The use of light scattering in characterizing lignin

Outline  Brief description of lignin  Light Scattering Types  Classical light scattering  Quasi-elastic or dynamic light scattering Principles of the technique  Experiments Methods and materials Lignin concentration Determination of dn/dc values for lignin LC analysis Results and discussion

Lignin  Large macromolecule formed by various types of substructures

Lignin  In nature is very resistant to degradation.  It is bonded in complex and various types of carbohydrates.

Light scattering  It is a non-invasive technique.  It permits measurements of the solutions properties of macromolecules.  It does not require calibration.

Light scattering  The study can be applied in either batch or chromatography mode. Batch mode: To make measurements of an unfractionated sample. Chromatography mode: The detector of light scattering is coupled with a fraction technique that separate molecules based on the physical properties.  Size exclusion chromatography can be completed under an hour and the batch mode in a few minutes.

Types of light scattering  Classical light scattering. It provides a direct measure of the molecular mass. These molecular masses are independent of the elution volume.  Quasi-elastic (QELS) or dynamic light scattering (DLS). Measures the dependence of the light scattered with the time. Its strength is the ability to analyze samples containing species widely differing in molecular masses.

Principles of light scattering  When laser impacts a macromolecule, the oscillating electric field of the light produce a oscillating dipole within it.  The intensity of the radiated light depends on the magnitude of the dipole induced in the macromolecule, so it’s necessary to know the polarizability of the sample. Dn/Dc

Angular dependence of scattered light and size  Molecules much smaller than the incident light can be treated as point scatterers. The scattered light is independent of the scattering angle.  For larger molecules, there are variations in the scattered light from different parts in the macromolecule.  If this dependence is measure, it’s possible to determine the size of the molecule.

Some definitions  Radius of gyration (rms): it’s a measured of the size weight of molecule by the mass distribution about its center of mass.  Hydrodynamic radius: depends on the mass and the shape of the molecule (conformation).  Second virial coefficient (A2): measure of solute-solvent interaction.

Equations and data analysis

Experiments  Materials and Methods  Lignin concentration  Determination of Dn/Dc values for lignin

Experiments  LC analysis  Results and discussion

Results and discussion  Zimm plot using Zimm formalism to estimate rms, rh and A2.

 Table of the results obtained from the studies with the different samples of lignin. Results and discussion

 Molecular weight-averaged molecular weight decreased when increasing pH. May be due to aggregates or incomplete solubilization in water.  Molecular conformation is deduced based on the ratio of the root mean square radius and hydrodinamic radius (rg/rh) Results and discussion

 The hydrodynamic radius (rh) is not given in the Zimm plots but appear in a separate QELS correlation function plot. Results and discussion

Conclusions  The values were generated after fitting data to 18 equations that could be generated for each of the six concentrations.  As the solvent pH was increased the weight averaged molecular weight decreased substantially, the radius of gyration also decreased.  This changed when the solvent pH increased to 8.5 indicating the dependence of lignin solubility with pH.
