Abstract

ABSTRACT: In this review, thermosetting polymers derived from natural resources are highlighted for future generation with greater sustainability for different applications. Recently, agro-based polymer products are gained popularity since last two decades due to the depletion of fossil reserves and to protect the environment from carbon emissions. This review also designed to explain the various types of agro-based polymer products derived from cardanol, itaconic acid, tannin, sugar (isosorbide), and vegetable oils as important starting materials due to their abundant availability, low price, and unique reactive chemical structure.
