Vegetable oils fulfill extremely well this goal, because of their worldwideavailability, large volume production at comparatively low prices and versatilityof the modifications and reactions in which they can participate to produce alarge variety of different monomers and polymer precursors. Further reactionsof these chemicals can lead to very different types of final materials with variedapplications. It is because of this remarkable versatility that many review articleshave appeared during the last years; many of them have dealt with the various routesfor vegetable oil modification and options for polymer synthesis, while others werededicated to the analysis of the properties of the derived materials, generallyfocusing on structural properties. In this review, we have focused on thecapabilities of vegetable oils to be modified and/ or reacted to obtainmaterials with functional properties suitable to be used in coatings,conductive or insulating materials, biomedical, shape memory, self-healing andthermoreversible materials as well as other special functional applications.
