The effective de-oxygenation of lignin into bio-oil was performed (Oxygen 15%).
Aliphatic lignin inter-unit bonds were depolymerized in all bio-oil fractions.
The main oxygen content in the bio-oil was connected to aromatic rings.
High Mw fractions were new repolymerized macromolecules.
2D NMR structural characterization of the fractionated bio-oil.
