Abstract
Monomer compounds and methods of synthesizing monomer compounds are disclosed. The monomer compounds can include maleate and maleimide monomers having fatty acid moieties. The monomer compounds can be derived from renewable sources such as corn, soybean, and sunflower oils. The monomer compounds can be formed into homopolymers as well as copolymers. The copolymers can include petroleum-derived monomers such as styrene, ethylene, and propylene.
