2,5-Furandicarboxylic acid (FDCA) is a diacid based on renewable resources and can be synthesized from fructose and galactose. Recently, polymers synthesized from FDCA have attracted more and more attention. The recent studies of synthesis, structures and properties of homopolyesters and copolyesters containing furan rings based on renewable resources, especially for the polyesters synthesized from 2,5-furandicarboxylic acid and its derivatives are summurized. The application and development of these polyesters are also discussed.
