Despite efforts to develop polymeric materials using renewable feedstocks, there is a continued reliance on (meth)acrylates for several additive manufacturing (AM) technologies, diminishing their overall sustainability. On the other hand, itaconic acid presents itself as an opportunity to resolve these shortcomings as a biobased source of unsaturation,
