Abstract

f

Microwave processing technology has spread its use rapidly in various areas due to its higher efficient reactions, rapid and controlled heating, and safe use with precise temperature and pressure control. Nowadays, this green alternative has triggered enormous interest in organic synthesis, specifically in developing vegetable oil-based polymers for coating applications such as alkyds, epoxies, esteramides and urethanes. The present summary aims to highlight recent investigations that have used microwave heating to obtain polymers from vegetable oil sources for diverse coating applications.
