Abstract
Polymer colloids are complex materials that have the potential to be used in a vast array of applications. One of the main reasons for their continued growth in commercial use is the water-based emulsion polymerization process through which they are generally synthesized. This technique is not only highly efficient from an industrial point of view but also extremely versatile and permits the large-scale production of colloidal particles with controllable properties. In this perspective, we seek to highlight the central challenges in the synthesis and use of polymer colloids, with respect to both existing and emerging applications. We first address the challenges in the current production and application of polymer colloids, with a particular focus on the transition toward sustainable feedstocks and reduced environmental impact in their primary commercial applications. Later, we highlight the features that allow novel polymer colloids to be designed and applied in emerging application areas. Finally, we present recent approaches that have used the unique colloidal nature in unconventional processing techniques.

Abstract
Polyurethane (PU) is one of the most popular synthetic elastomers and widely employed in biomedical fields owing to the excellent biocompatibility and hemocompatibility known today. In addition, PU is simply prepared and its mechanical properties such as durability, elasticity, elastomer-like character, fatigue resistance, compliance or tolerance in the body during the healing, can be mediated by modifying the chemical structure. Furthermore, modification of bulk and surface by incorporating biomolecules such as anticoagulant s or biorecognizable groups, or hydrophilic/hydrophobic balance is possible through altering chemical groups for PU structure. Such modifications have been designed to improve the acceptance of implant. For these reason, conventional solventborne (solvent-based) PUs have established the standard for high performance systems, and extensively used in medical devices such as dressings, tubing, antibacterial membrane , catheters to total artificial heart and blood contacting materials, etc. However, waterborne polyurethane (WPU) has been developed to improve the process of dissolving PU materials using toxic organic solvents, in which water is used as a dispersing solvent. The prepared WPU materials have many advantages, briefly (1) zero or very low levels of organic solvents, namely environmental-friendly (2) non-toxic, due to absence of isocyanate residues, and (3) good applicability caused by extensive structure/property diversity as well as an environment-friendly fabrication method resulting in increasing applicability. Therefore, WPUs are being in the spotlight as biomaterials used for biomedical applications . The purpose of this review is to introduce an environmental- friendly synthesis of WPU and consider the manufacturing process and application of WPU and/or WPU based nanocomposites as the viewpoint of biomaterials.

Abstract
A variety of renewable starting materials, such as sugars and polysaccharides, vegetable oils, lignin, pine resin derivatives, and proteins, have so far been investigated for the preparation of bio-based polymers. Among the various sources of bio-based feedstock, vegetable oils are one of the most widely used starting materials in the polymer industry due to their easy availability, low toxicity, and relative low cost. Another bio-based plastic of great interest is poly(lactic acid) (PLA), widely used in multiple commercial applications nowadays. There is an intrinsic expectation that bio-based polymers are also biodegradable, but in reality there is no guarantee that polymers prepared from biorenewable feedstock exhibit significant or relevant biodegradability. Biodegradability studies are therefore crucial in order to assess the long-term environmental impact of such materials. This review presents a brief overview of the different classes of bio-based polymers, with a strong focus on vegetable oil-derived resins and PLA. An entire section is dedicated to a discussion of the literature addressing the biodegradability of bio-based polymers.

Abstract
A fluorescent tracer, poly (acrylic-co-stearyl acrylate-co-3-acryloyl fluorescein) [poly (AA-co-SA-co-Ac-Flu)], used for real-time monitoring the penetration of amphiphilic acrylate copolymer, poly (acrylic-co-stearyl acrylate) [poly (AA-co-SA)], in leather was synthesized by radical polymerization of acrylic, stearyl acrylate and fluorescent monomer, 3-acryloyl fluorescein (Ac-Flu). The structure, molecular weight, introduced fluorescent group content and fluorescent characteristics of the fluorescent tracer and target copolymer, amphiphilic acrylate copolymer, were also characterized. The results show that the tracer presents the similar structural characteristics to the target and enough fluorescence intensity with 1.68 wt % of the fluorescent monomer introduced amount. The vertical section of the leather treated with the target copolymer mixing with 7% of the tracer exhibits evident fluorescence, and the change of fluorescence intensity along with the vertical section with treating time increasing can reflect the penetration depth of the target copolymer. The introduction of the fluorescent group in polymer structure through copolymerization with a limited amount of fluorescent monomer, Ac-Flu, is an effective way to make a tracer to monitor the penetration of the target in leather, which provides a new thought for the penetration research of syntans such as vinyl copolymer materials in leather manufacture.

Abstract
Two kinds of curable acrylate oligomer mixtures were used for films obtained by thermal polymerization of multiacrylates group. Then, a series of soybean oil (SO) blends were prepared by inclusion of high content (up to 50 wt %) of the SO into the polymer network. A polyurethane oligomer with multifunctional acrylate endcaps (from pentaerythritol triacrylate) was used as a base component for the curable blends. Two of the blend components are biosourced oligomers, namely acrylated epoxidized SO (AESO) and SO. The effects of the acrylate oligomers ratio and of the SO content on the cross-linked polyurethane acrylate (PUA) matrix were studied by evaluating various properties of the films such as thermal behavior, tensile properties, and surface properties. The glass transition temperatures ( Tg) increased by increasing the content (from 10% to 50%) of AESO from −41°C to −16°C. The hydrophobic properties of the films surface significantly increased with the AESO content and slightly decreased with the SO content. These blends provide new environment-friendly formulations for cross-linked PUA matrices.
