Functional Polymers from Renewable Resources

Renewable Feedstocks, Degradable Frameworks

The group designs degradable polymers derived from natural products and plant-derived feedstocks, harnessing compositional, regiochemical, and stereochemical complexity to reduce reliance on petrochemicals.

Functional polymers from renewable resources use natural product-derived monomers and degradable polymer frameworks to develop sustainable alternatives to conventional plastics.

• Natural product-derived monomers
• Hydrolytically degradable polymer frameworks
• Sustainable alternatives to conventional plastics
