Abstract
Latent curing agents are essential in the formulation of one-component epoxy resins, yet they are seldom derived from fully biobased chemicals. In the present work, a fully biobased latent curing agent for epoxy resins (BIMPA) was produced by synthesizing an ionic complex of lignin-derived triaryl-imidazole (BIM) and phytic acid (PA). Benefiting from the synergistic effect of BIM and PA, the one-component epoxy resin, composed of BIMPA and commercially available E51, exhibits a storage stability of over 90 days. Upon heating, the ionic complex undergoes decomposition, liberating the active imidazole to cure the precursor. The resulting epoxy resins exhibited a flexural modulus of 3.09 GPa, a flexural strength of 107.47 MPa, a notched izod impact strength of 2.47 kJ/m3, and a shear strength of 41.02 MPa. The outcome can provide an effective supplement for the development of biobased epoxy resins.

Abstract
One-component epoxy resins based on latent curing agents have garnered research attention owing to their outstanding storage stability and excellent processability, while their development considerably depends on the design and preparation of sustainable latent curing agents. Herein, taking structural advantage of lignin-derived vanillin, a biobased polymerizable aromatic imidazole monomer with α,ω-diene functionality was designed and prepared, which was applicable in subsequent thiol-ene polymerization, yielding a series of robust poly(thioether imidazoles) with excellent tunability of the structure and properties. The findings indicated that the precursors comprising poly(thioether imidazole) and commercially available epoxy resins could keep their fluidity at 25 °C for over 90 days and rapidly cured into resins under elevated temperature, demonstrating that the poly(thioether imidazole) can serve as both a latent curing and toughening agent for one-component epoxy resins because of homopolymerization initiated by imidazole groups and the introduction of an aliphatic chain in the as-prepared poly(thioether imidazole) matrix.

Cardanol-Derived Epoxy Resins as Biobased Gel Polymer Electrolytes for Potassium-Ion Conduction. ACS APPLIED POLYMER MATERIALS 2022; 4:3855-3865.

Abstract
In this study, biobased gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) membranes were developed via the esterification reaction of a cardanol-based epoxy resin with glutaric anhydride, succinic anhydride, and hexahydro-4-methylphthalic anhydride. Nonisothermal differential scanning calorimetry was used to assess the optimal curing time and temperature of the formulations, evidencing a process activation energy of ∼65-70 kJ mol-1. A rubbery plateau modulus of 0.65-0.78 MPa and a crosslinking density of 2 × 10-4 mol cm-3 were found through dynamic mechanical analysis. Based on these characteristics, such biobased membranes were tested for applicability as GPEs for potassium-ion batteries (KIBs), showing an excellent electrochemical stability toward potassium metal in the -0.2-5 V voltage range and suitable ionic conductivity (10-3 S cm-1) at room temperature. This study demonstrates the practical viability of these biobased materials as efficient GPEs for the fabrication of KIBs, paving the path to increased sustainability in the field of next-generation battery technologies.
