Nature’s Shield for industry

LignoChemi



LignoChemi is a deep-tech green chemistry startup developing bio-based specialty chemicals from lignin, one of the most abundant and underutilized natural polymers. We transform industrial lignin streams into high-performance, sustainable additives for applications in lubricants, coatings, and industrial fluids. Our technology replaces fossil-based and toxic chemicals with renewable, cost-competitive, and regulation-ready alternatives, supporting industries in meeting EU sustainability and decarbonization targets. Founded by a multidisciplinary team with expertise in bio-refinery processes, chemical engineering, and industrial commercialization, LignoChemi bridges scientific innovation and real-world industrial needs. We focus on scalable production, industrial validation, and compliance with European standards. LignoChemi enables a smarter transition from fossil chemistry to circular, bio-based solutions.

Built for Industries Under Regulatory Pressure

How does the oxidative stability of your lignin-based antioxidant compare to conventional phenolic additives under high-temperature and long-drain conditions? Our lignin-based antioxidant has demonstrated oxidative stability performance comparable to conventional synthetic phenolic additives under high-temperature and long-drain conditions. In extended marine and wind turbine field trials, we observed up to a 30% increase in oil service life compared to untreated formulations. The multi-site polyphenolic structure of lignin provides sustained radical scavenging, particularly in demanding operating environments.
Technical Performance Question
Is your additive fully compatible with common base oils (Group I–V) and standard lubricant formulations without requiring reformulation? Yes. Our additive is designed as a drop-in solution and is compatible with commonly used base oils, including Group I, II, III, and selected Group IV formulations. It does not require fundamental reformulation of existing lubricant systems. Compatibility and solubility have been validated through standard blending and stability tests.
Compatibility & Formulation Concern
How do you ensure batch-to-batch consistency and performance stability when using lignin from different biomass or pulping sources? We address lignin variability through controlled feedstock selection and standardized chemical modification protocols. Our process normalizes molecular weight distribution and functional group availability, ensuring consistent batch-to-batch performance regardless of lignin source. Quality control parameters are defined to meet industrial lubricant specifications.
