text: It is tightly cross-linked with other cell wall components and can thus be considered the “cellular glue” providing strength to plant tissues and fibers and stiffness to the cell walls .
text: Lignin is a cross-linked polymer with molecular masses in excess of 10,000
text: Chemically, lignins are cross-linked phenolic polymers.
text: In general terms, lignin can be described as a three-dimensionally cross-linked polymer formed biologically from phenol-propane-type monomer units (Sjöström 1993).
text: X-ray crystallographic eviAence suggests that because the cellulose microfibrils constitute a separately crystalline phase, the lignin is more intimately cross-linked with the hemicellulose than with the alphacellulose.
