As global industries move toward sustainability, the search for alternatives to current petroleum‐based polymer products is becoming necessary. Bio‐based epoxy resins have emerged as a sustainable alternative to petroleum‐based epoxy resins. Commonly, furan derivatives, carbohydrates, cardanol, and lignin are commercially utilized with bio‐based curing agents to form crosslinked structures. In recent years, epoxidized vegetable oils have gathered significant attention as sustainable bio‐based materials for epoxy resin. Vegetable oils have an abundance of unsaturation sites, leading to epoxy‐functionalized molecules. This review provides various materials, synthesis methods, properties, and applications of vegetable oil‐based epoxy resins.

“…The high silica, magnesia and alumina contents imply potential pozzolanic property which reveals why ash generated from PKS has been studied as a partial replacement for cement in cementitious composites. Furthermore, its availability and affordability together with other properties like relatively high porosity, surface area and strength-toweight ratio makes the agricultural waste a potential solid biocatalyst (Nwosu-Obieogua, et al, 2022).…”
