Front Cover : The synthesis of bio‐based pressure sensitive adhesives and their characterization in terms of mechanical properties relevant to processing and application is described. Renewable monomers are obtained from vegetable oils as a renewable feedstock and polymerized via free radical polymerization, resulting in high molecular weight polymers with mechanical and adhesive properties similar to conventional pressure sensitive adhesives. Further details can be found in the article by W. Maaßen, S. Oelmann, D. Peter, W. Oswald, N. Willenbacher,* and M. A. R. Meier* on page 1609.
