  "abstract": "Biobased pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) were prepared from Tulipalin A (α-methyleneγ-butyrolactone, MBL) and lauryl methacrylate (LMA) as the principal renewable monomers using photochemically induced atom transfer radical polymerization (photoATRP).Copolymerization kinetics at different MBL/LMA feed ratios showed controlled behavior over the investigated conversion range, with increasing molar mass and relatively low dispersity.A copolymer containing approximately 20 mol% MBL and 80 mol% LMA exhibited a glasstransition temperature below room temperature and was selected for PSA optimization.The effects of MBL content, molar mass, acrylic acid (AA), and small amounts of 1,6-hexanediol diacrylate (HDDA) on the adhesion-cohesion balance were systematically evaluated.Depending on formulation, peel strength ranged from approximately 2 to 35 N/2.5 cm, static shear resistance ranged from a few hours to more than 80 days under a 0.5 kg load, and the shear adhesion failure temperature (SAFT) reached 66 °C.Comparison with analogous formulations prepared by free-radical photopolymerization indicated a more favorable adhesion-cohesion balance for the photoATRP-derived materials.Rheological and thermal analyses further confirmed PSA-like viscoelastic behavior and high thermal decomposition stability.Overall, the formulation can be tuned from removable to permanent adhesion while maintaining a biobased content above 70 wt% and without requiring a conventional tackifier.",
