Natural Epoxy resin

We use thermoplastics or thermosets for composite. For

carbon fibre reinforcement we use resin epoxy. We can use
hybrid bio-based reinforcements to minimise the carbon
footprints. These resin/epoxy are obtained directly from
nature and then treated according to the required use.
One of the common natural oil based epoxy resins are
soyabean oil based epoxy.
Biobased epoxy vitrimer from epoxidized soybean oil for
reprocessable and recyclable carbon fiber reinforced
composite.
This Vitrimers can be used in place of non renewable
synthetic epoxy. Physical properties is approximately as
synthetic epoxy. Here the comparison is made between
carbon fiber composite with permanent ESO thermoset ESO-
DHM as a matrix. Against biobased epoxy vitrimer, ESO-VA.
