The Diels–Alder (DA) reaction is regarded as quite a useful strategy in organic and
macromolecular syntheses. The reversibility of this reaction and the advent of self-repair …

Replacing petroleum-based products with inexpensive, biorenewable, natural materials is
important for sustainable development and will have a significant impact on the polymer …

The synthesis process of the phenolic resin adhesive was developed in the 19th century,
and its excellent environmental resistance and high bonding strength make it one of the …

Aiming to address the problems of flammability and brittleness of BMI and reduce the use of
petroleum-based materials, three kinds of cardanol-based co-curing agents (CDPO, CDPC …

Surfactants are crystallizing a certain focus for consumer interest, and their market is still
expected to grow by 4 to 5% each year. Most of the time these surfactants are of petroleum …

Polymers from renewable resources are receiving tremendous attention due to the
increasing concerns on the depletion of fossil oils and deteriorated environments. Cardanol …

Phenolic resin, as a synthetic polymer precursor of hard carbon, has become the core anode
precursor of sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, the carcinogenic formaldehyde is …

A novel biobased monomer, cardanol ethyl vinyl ether (CEVE) and its autooxidatively
curable linear homopolymer and copolymers were synthesized using carbocationic …

Various naturally‐based chemicals can be used directly as wood adhesives or are
precursors for the synthesis of adhesive resins. Liquefaction and pyrolysis of wood yield …

This paper proposes more sustainable alternatives for the synthesis of high thermal
