Abstract
The lignin present in plant tissues is referred to as native or natural lignin. During the industrial delignification of lignocellulosic materials such as wood, lignin undergoes significant structural changes; so the lignins obtained under industrial conditions, the so-called technical lignins, are not identical with the native ones in their structures.
