  • TERPENE AND TERPENOID DERIVATIVES CONTAINING VINYL GROUPS FOR THE PREPARATION OF POLYMERS
    Publication number: 20170044282
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing functionalised monomers, the method comprising: a) providing a starting material selected from terpenes and terpenoids; b) forming a derivative of the starting material by incorporation of a hydroxyl group; c) esterifying the hydroxyl group of the derivative to introduce a moiety containing a vinyl group, so as to produce a functionalised monomer. The functionalised monomer can be polymerised to obtain a bio-derived polymer.
