The biopolymer lignin is a by-product of papermaking and a promising raw material for manufacturing sustainable plastic materials.

An X-ray analysis carried out at DESY reveals for the first time how the internal molecular structure of different lignin products is related to the macroscopic properties of the respective materials.
