题目：A Fundamental Investigation of Lignin Aggregation using Static Light Scattering

　　演讲人：Prof. Lucian Lucia， North Carolina State University

　　Dr. Lucian A. Lucia has studied a wide variety of fundamental chemistry and material engineering questions surrounding renewables (principally wood)-based polymers over the last 12 years. He has co-founded and co-edits an open-access international research journal, BioResources, that is dedicated to original research articles, reviews, and editorials on advanced applications of lignocellulosics. He has co-edited a special issue of Cellulose (December 2007) on biopolymer nanotechnology and is co-editing two books in this area with Wiley & Sons (The Nanoscience and Technology of Renewable Biomaterials and Polysaccharide-based Biomaterials), is the lead author on a soon-to-be published Chem. Rev.(2009) article covering cellulose nanocrystals, is designing new biomaterial courses at NCSU, coordinating and attending conferences & symposia on material science aspects of lignocellulosics, and working to promote the concept of biomass as a viable replacement for petroleum through his articles, presentations, and work.
