The Doctoral Thesis has been prepared as a collection of thematically related scientific publications comprising seven articles, complemented by summaries in Latvian and English. The research developed a new concept for the synthesis of Michael components from the second-generation raw material tall oil, which is a by-product of cellulose production. The study explored combining tall oil-based acetoacetates (Michael donor) with various origin acrylates (Michael acceptor) to create flexible and rigid polymer resins and foams with a range of properties suitable for different applications, particularly as thermal insulation.
