The production of sustainable coatings derived from sustainable and renewable resources with improved and multifunctional performances is necessary. Generally, functional biobased coatings can be applied to improve the surface characteristics of a substrate which include the adhesion, wettability, water repellence, anti-corrosion properties and gas barrier.
In the quest to find and identify renewable raw materials for use in coatings, biobased polyurethanes, polyesters and epoxy resins are very significant. In general, biobased coatings can be used in several applications, including aerospace, automotive, marine structures, biomedical devices, decorative stuff, energy items, etc [2].
