Abstract
Bio-derived monomers and biobased building blocks obtained from natural sources, e.g., fats and oils, are attracting increasing attention mainly due to sustainability concerns. Due to their features, renewable feedstocks are an excellent alternative to petroleum-based raw materials to shift towards greener chemistry, especially when coupled with energy-efficient processes like photopolymerization. In this review, we illustrate the recent research outcomes in the field of photocurable biobased monomers, showing the advantages of using biobased chemicals for the synthesis of photocurable monomers and the potential of naturally derived building blocks in photocuring reactions.
