In pursuit of an eco-conscious substitute for petroleum-derived epoxy resin, this
study endeavors to extract lignin from peanut biomass for the production of a wood resin
coating. This study demonstrated the Alkaline Extraction of Lignin using 10% NaOH
solution digested for 6 hours and characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared
Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The obtained solid lignin
was mixed with PEG 600, fumed silica, and hardener. The ratio of extracted solid lignin to
PEG 600 was 1:8, extracted solid lignin with PEG 600 to fumed silica was 1:1 and extracted
solid lignin with PEG 600 and fumed silica to hardener was 1:2. Results revealed O-H, C-
H, C=C and C-O bonds from the extracted solid lignin with wavelengths of 3371.57 cm-1
,
2922.16 cm-1
, 1633.71 cm-1
, 1228.66cm-1
, respectively. Scanning Electron Microscopy
(SEM) revealed visible streaks, small holes, ragged and irregular web-like structures from
100x, 1000x, and 10000x magnifications, respectively. The physicochemical properties of
wood coated with lignin-based wood resin coating were successfully conducted with
manifested results. This study successfully utilized an alkaline extraction method to extract
lignin from peanut shell biomass as an alternative epoxy for wood resin coatings. Further
research is recommended to explore suitable plasticizers, additives, and hardeners for
potential applications alongside lignin.
