EPOXY RESIN
Epoxy resin is a versatile and widely used thermosetting polymer known for its exceptional adhesion, strength, and chemical resistance. Derived from the reaction between epichlorohydrin and bisphenol-A, epoxy resins are commonly employed in a myriad of applications due to their unique combination of properties.
Epoxy resins can achieve high transparency, allowing for the creation of aesthetically pleasing and glossy finishes. This property is particularly desirable in applications such as art, jewelry, and decorative coatings. Exhibits excellent water and moisture resistance, making it suitable for use in damp or submerged environments without compromising its structural integrity.
