Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The purified lignin extracted from wheat straw by organosolv process was characterized for the existence of lignin subunits, functional groups and physical and thermal behaviours. Presence of carboxyl, hydroxyl, methoxyl groups and C–C, C–O, C=O linkages were conducted by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR). By H-NMR (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy) presence of aromatic protons, phenolic hydroxyls, carboxylic acids, and aldehydes were established. Moreover, C-NMR spectra have disclosed the presence of condensed and uncondensed aliphatic and aromatic aryls and ethers. The existence of syringyl and guaiacyl units also were confirmed with both FTIR and NMR spectroscopies. Furthermore, the results from Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA) showed the weight of extracted lignin is changed in temperatures between 180 and 670 °C by devolatization, formation and condensation of different chemicals. Also, the Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) graph displayed a glass transition temperature of 105 °C for extracted lignin. As a result, the extracted lignin with high purity can be a suitable candidate for carrying out value-added products.
