Original Abstract
Materials derived from natural sources are demanded for future applications due to the combination of factors such as sustainability increase and legislature requirements. The availability and efficient analysis of vegetable oils (triacylglycerides) open an enormous potential for incorporating these compounds into various products to ensure the ecological footprint decreases and to provide advantageous properties to the eventual products, such as flexibility, toughness, or exceptional hydrophobic character. The double bonds located in many vegetable oils are centers for chemical functionalization, such as epoxidization, hydroxylation, or many nucleophile substitutions using acids or anhydrides. Naturally occurring castor oil comprises a reactive vacant hydroxyl group, which can be modified via numerous chemical approaches. This comprehensive Review provides an overall insight toward multiple materials utilities for functionalized glycerides such as additive manufacturing (3D printing), polyurethane materials (including their chemical recycling), coatings, and adhesives. This work provides a complex list of investigated and studied applications throughout the available literature and describes the chemical principles for each selected application.
