Acetic acid lignin (AL), one of the organosolv lignins, was modified by polyoxyethylation using commercially available polyethylene glycol diglycidylethers (PEGDE) having various chain lengths in order to generate novel nonionic polymeric surfactants. AL could be converted to the amphiphile by modifying with PEGDE (PEGDE-AL) having more than 9 of the ethylene oxide (EO) repeating units. Although the surface activities of PEG and AL were very limited, PEGDE-AL did strongly depress surface tension of water, and showed clear critical micelle concentrations (CMC). The CMC value of PEGDE-AL could be comparable to a commercial anionic lignin surfactant, lignosulfonate. The surface activity of AL amphiphile was further improved by modification with monoepoxides, ethoxy-(2-hydroxy)-propoxy-polyethylene glycol glycidylether (EPEGGE). The surface tension of water was depressed by the addition of the EPEGGE-AL to the same level as Triton X-100, which is a commercial PEG-based nonionic surfactant, although there is still room for improvement in CMC value. The hydrophile-lipophile balance (HLB) of these AL amphiphiles was in the range of 11-14, and significant biodegradation was observed. These results suggest that the AL amphiphiles can be used as emulsifier and detergent.
