Novel and sustainable methods to develop greener polymers

This Thesis reports the development of green approaches towards the synthesis of novel polyesters. Generally, polyesters are synthesised using harsh conditions (such as high temperatures) and rely upon petrochemical-derived building blocks. By using biomass, more specifically plant oil derived sourc...
