This chapter reviews the recent advances in rosin-based monomers and polymers, as well as the recent efforts on rosin based thermoplastic elastomers and antimicrobial materials. Rosin mainly consists of various resin acids (major components), a small amount of fatty acids and non-acidic components. Resin acids in rosin are a mixture with a basic molecular structure of one carboxyl and two double bonds on a hydrogenated phenanthrene ring. The chapter talks about rosin- derived monomers for main-chain polymers, rosin-derived monomers, and rosin-derived monomers for three-dimensional rosin-based polymer. Reversible addition-fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) is a robust technique used for the preparation of well-defined polymers. The RAFT polymerization was performed with rosin-derived monomer, initiator (AIBN, azobisisobutyronitrile) and RAFT transfer agent. Besides the traditional plastic application, recent efforts in the fabrication of rosin-based elastomers and antimicrobial polymers have been encouraging, which might open an avenue to explore value-added rosin-based polymers.
