Recent years have witnessed significant progress in bio-based epoxy thermosets. A variety of epoxy thermosets have been synthesized from various bioresources. In particular, epoxy thermosets derived from bio-based monomeric phenols, either naturally occurring or biotransformed, such as cardanol, eugenol, vanillin, tannin acid, gallic acid, and so forth. This review summarizes the research regarding this theme and highlights the molecular transformations and ultimate properties of the resultant epoxy thermosets and materials. The relevant epoxy monomers, prepolymers, curing agents, additives, cured thermosets, functional materials and biocomposites are discussed based on their molecular structures and properties of crosslinked networks. Finally, the challenges and opportunities in developing sustainable epoxy thermosets and materials from bio-based monomeric phenols are presented.

近年来，生物基环氧热固性材料取得了重大进展。从各种生物资源已经合成了多种环氧热固性材料。特别地，衍生自天然存在的或生物转化的生物基单体酚的环氧热固性材料，例如腰果酚，丁子香酚，香兰素，单宁酸，没食子酸等。这篇综述总结了有关该主题的研究，并重点介绍了所得环氧热固性材料和材料的分子转化和最终性能。根据它们的分子结构和交联网络的性质，讨论了相关的环氧单体，预聚物，固化剂，添加剂，固化的热固性材料，功能材料和生物复合材料。最后，
