We developed a 100% bio-based pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) possessing strong
adhesion, as well as reusability, recyclability, and on-demand removability. The adhesive …

Pressure-sensitive adhesives occupy a large role in the commercial use of polymers;
however, they are typically limited to nondegradable formulations using petroleum-based …

Biomass-derived polymer materials are emerging as sustainable and low-carbon footprint
alternatives to the current petroleum-based commodity plastics. In the past decade, the ring …

Biobased polymer synthesis is becoming an indispensable research area aimed at
addressing environmental pollution and the depletion of petroleum resources. Vanillin …

Upcycling renewable resources into value-added products has shown substantial promise
for producing sustainable polymers and reducing environmental pollution. To achieve this …

Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) is a powerful method to graft various types
of polymer chains to a given surface. While surface-initiated ROMP (SI-ROMP) serves as an …

In this study, fatty acid chains were used to develop functionalized monomers with the aim of
reducing dependence on petroleum sources by utilizing plant-based molecules. Pendant …

The farnesene monomer, obtained through bio-fermentation, offers a unique long side chain
structure that serves as an excellent platform for the synthesis of bottle-brush polymers with …

Recently, the chemistry of supramolecular adhesives has rapidly progressed in materials
science and tissue engineering. Many structural motifs with a variety of non-covalent …
