Popis: For the first time, tannin-lignin-formaldehyde and tannin-lignin-furfuryl organic gels were obtained on the basis of larch bark tannins and hydrolysis lignin by sol-gel condensation with formaldehyde and furfuryl alcohol. Their physico-chemical properties were studied by varying the content of lignin (from 5 to 30 wt%) and a fixed mass ratio of polyphenolic substances to the crosslinking reagent (1 : 1.5). With an increase in the lignin content the density of tannin-lignin formaldehyde gels decreases from 0.83 to 0.53 g/ cm3, and that of tannin-lignin-furfuryl gels is from 0.32 to 0.14 g / cm3. According to the FTIR data, the structures of tannin-lignin-formaldehyde and tannin-lignin-furfuryl gels are formed by aromatic fragments cross-linked with methylene and methylene-ether bridges. Scanning electron microscopy shows that the addition of appropriate amounts of lignin to tannins (up to 10 wt% when using formaldehyde and up to 20 wt% when using furfuryl alcohol) promotes the formation of gels with a more developed porous structure. In the case of tannin-lignin-formaldehyde gel, the specific surface area and sorption of methylene blue are 12 m2 / g and 43 mg / g and for tannin-lignin-furfuryl gel – 72 m2 / g and 114.5 mg/g, respectively. It was found that an increase in the lignin content in the gel composition over 20 wt.% is accompanied by the phase localization of lignin (precipitation), which reduces the strength of the resulting gel and reduces its specific surface area.
