Epoxy resins are a type of synthetic polymer known for their strong adhesive properties and durability. They are created by mixing two components: a resin and a hardener. When combined, these components undergo a chemical reaction that results in a solid, rigid material. This makes epoxy resins ideal for various applications, including coatings, adhesives, and composite materials. Due to their excellent resistance to chemicals and moisture, epoxy resins are widely used in industries such as construction, automotive, and electronics. They can be formulated to have different properties, allowing for customization based on specific needs, such as flexibility or heat resistance.
