In this paper, we propose an analyzis method for the dynamics of polymer chains, based on a Ricatti procedure induced by possible correlations through the compatibility of the thermal radiation-classical damped oscillator dynamics. Then, the quantification (radiation frecquency is directly proportional to the color temperature) and the erasure of one bit of information becomes a natural processes induced by the system structure itself. The theory has implications in the dynamics of biological structures (arhitecture of tumors, information on tumor growth and angiogenesis, etc.) in the form of Resonant Recognition Model.

Biodegradable materials investigation has become a necessity and a direction for many researchers worldwide. The main goal is to find sustainable alternatives which gradually replace plastics based on fossil resources from the market, because they are very harmful to the environment and to overall quality of life. In order to get to the stage of obtaining different functional parts from biodegradable materials, it is necessary to study their properties. Taking into account these shortcomings, this paper aims at the mechanical characterization (DMA—Dynamic Mechanical Analysis) and thermal degradation (thermogravimetric analysis (TGA)) of lignin-based biopolymers: Arboform LV3 Nature®, Arboblend® V2 Nature, and Arbofill® Fichte Arboform® LV3 Nature reinforced with aramid fibers. The tested samples were obtained by using the most common fabrication technique for polymers—injection molding. The obtained results for the DMA analysis showed separate polymeric-specific regions for each material and, based on the tanδ values between (0.37–0.54), a series of plastics could be proposed for replacement. The mechano-dynamic behavior could be correlated with the thermal expansion of biopolymers for temperatures higher than 50/55 °C, which are thermally stable up to temperatures of at least 250 °C.

Because of an ever-increasing demand of non-toxic, biodegradable, naturally-sourced materials and products, the human society is always searching for new materials with specific applications, which are able to fulfil the above-mentioned requirements. Consequently, it is essential to identify the qualities of these materials and their behaviour when subjected to various external factors, in order to find their optimal solutions for application in various domains. Such a material, obtained from renewable resources, is known as “liquid wood”, a material which exhibits composite polymer-like properties, having a lignin matrix. “Liquid wood” can be found in three different forms: Arboform, Arbofill and Arboblend, depending on the natural substances (besides or associated with lignin), which are to be found in the material – resins, wax, vegetable fibres etc. As such, “liquid wood” has been subjected to various external factors, the aim being to determine the degradation of the material when acted upon by environmental factors. Thus, “liquid wood” has been immersed in distilled water and then in an alkaline environment and in an acid environment for 210 days. Measurements were periodically performed to determine the mass variation and the change of electrical properties when subjected to the specific environmental factors and to UV radiation. The changes were determined by comparison with standard samples. Following this study, it has been observed that the main degradation factor is water, which leads to cracking and then fracture in the material. Furthermore, significant changes have been observed in the electrical properties of the material and in the pH of the environments in which it has been immersed. These observations lead to the idea that the material is hydrophilic. The results obtained following the immersion of “liquid wood” in distilled water and then in an alkaline environment and in an acid environment point towards some of the possible application of this material in various fields of activity, which may have a significant positive impact upon the environment.

“Liquid wood” is a biopolymer composite exhibiting a lignin matrix. Lignin is separated as a by-product of paper. Following research by German scientists from a production company, an invention was made that determines a new use of lignin, the capitalization of said product in this case being superior. This material combines lignin with other natural substances: resins, waxes, vegetable fibres etc. It results a polymer that exhibits certain physic-chemical properties which recommend it for large scale use, being able to substitute plastic materials. Some of the properties of “liquid wood” are: it is a thermo-injectable polymer, it is obtained from renewable resources and it is biodegradable. Existing injection or extruding machines, used for synthetic polymers such as polyethylene and polypropylene, can be employed to obtain various “liquid wood” parts. It has been observed that injection process parameters influence mechanical and physic – chemical properties of products obtained from “liquid wood”. In order to find the optimal injection parameters for an object that exhibits certain mechanical and physic – chemical properties, it is necessary to determine the rheological properties of “liquid wood”. In this paper, several “liquid wood” rheological properties have been determined, in order to assist the optimization of the injection process.

The existence of many forms of “liquid wood”, even in the same subgroup, is explained by the fact that the main matrix is made of lignin and lignin can be found in nature in over 60 presentation forms. The lignin molecule is a complex macro – molecule made of three molecules which link together in various shapes. At the same time, structurally speaking, the lignin molecule is dependent on the type of plant species from which it is sourced. It results that the type and the structure of the lignin molecule – and implicitly the “liquid wood” biocomposite matrix – has a major role in the forming and the structuring of every type of “liquid wood”. In the current article, a comparative study of the properties of “liquid wood” pertaining to all three subgroups is presented. The chosen types are: Arboform F45, Arbofill Fichte and Arboblend V2 (which is the subject of the entire study).
