Epoxy Resin

What is epoxy resin?

Epoxy resin is a thermosetting adhesive based on epoxide compounds that cures through reaction with hardeners. After curing, epoxy resins form high-strength, chemical-resistant and temperature-stable bonds.

Properties of epoxy resin

  • Excellent mechanical properties
  • High adhesion to various materials
  • Good chemical resistance
  • Low shrinkage during curing
  • Very good electrical insulating properties

Types of epoxy resins

  • One-component epoxies: Heat-curing, long storage life
  • Two-component epoxies: Cold-curing or heat-curing
  • Light-curing epoxies: UV curing for fast processes
  • Modified epoxies: highly resistant to flexible and stress-compensating

Application areas

  • Structural bonding: High-strength metal connections
  • Electronics encapsulation: Protection of semiconductors and sensors
  • Fiber composites: Matrix for carbon fiber and glass fiber
  • Coatings: Corrosion protection and chemical resistance
