  • Description: This article provides UV-spectrophotometry data of technical lignin samples in solutions, which were acquired after ambient aging for up to 110 days or looped measurements on fresh solutions. UV-spectrophotometry of lignin is a useful technique, as it can a) quantify the concentration and purity of lignin in a given sample, b) determine the abundance of phenolic hydroxyl groups, and c) yield qualitative information about chemical modification of the lignin macromolecule. In addition, the technique is rapid and easy to use. Still, solutions of lignin are known to be unstable; in particular at high pH or in presence of UV-light. The data in this article may hence serve as guide in the experimental conduct and design, as it shows the reproducibility of UV-spectrophotometry measurements of lignin. Stock solutions of technical lignin were made according to previously published procedure [1]. The solutions in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) were aged in 100 mL volumetric flasks with glass stopper, taking periodic samples for measurements in a Shimadzu UV-1900 UV−vis spectrophotometer. The instrument recorded the spectrum from 500 to 200 nm at 1.0 nm intervals and medium speed, using quartz cuvettes with a pathlength of 1 cm. In addition, looped measurements were conducted on fresh solutions, where the instrument repeated the spectral range of 500 to 200 nm for in total sixteen times. The latter examined solutions of technical lignin in DMSO solvent as well as in 0.2 N NaOH in water.
