“…Acrylates and polyols derived from epoxidized plant oils have also been used as a monomer for preparation of bio-based polymeric materials (Biresaw et al 2008, Lligadas et al 2010, Luo et al 2011, Saithai et al 2013. Furthermore, various cationic polymerization of epoxidized plant oil can be achieved by photoinitiators, latent catalysts, or acid catalysts (Chakrapani & Crivello 1998, Shibata et al 2009, Wang & Schuman 2013. These epoxy compounds from renewable resources possess high potential as a starting material for bio-based thermosetting plastics , Petrović et al 2005, Campanella et al 2009, Gupta et al 2011.…”
