1. A method of polymerizing a biorenewable, previously modified, or functionalized oil, comprising:
heating a biorenewable, previously modified, or functionalized oil to at least 100° C., wherein the oil comprises soybean oil, canola oil, rapeseed oil, castor oil, tall oil, sunflower oil, palm oil, peanut oil, safflower oil, corn oil, corn stillage oil, lecithin, an animal-based oil, or a combination thereof;
adding a sulfur-containing compound to the heated oil; and
allowing the sulfur-containing compound to react with the oil to produce a polymerized oil crosslinked with the sulfur-containing compound, the oil comprising
a polymeric distribution having about 2 to about 80 wt % oligomer content, and
a. sulfur content ranging from 0.001 wt % to 8 wt %.
