In recent years, bio-based polymeric materials have attracted increased attention owing to their distinctive properties, including richness, sustainability, environmental friendliness, and biodegradability. This article reviews the recent developments and potential trends of research on bio-based polymers synthesized from various renewable resources. It covers the resources and structures of bio-based monomers, the methods of synthesis and properties of bio-based thermoplastics and thermosets, the production of bio-based composites and the fabrication of functional bio-based polymers. Finally, the technological and future challenges related to enabling these materials to apply in the industry have been discussed, together with the potential solutions or directions.
