Epoxy is a fiber-reinforced polymer alloy. Epoxy coating is a broad term with many uses. For example, epoxy resins are widely used as insulating material in electrical and electronic applications. They are used for purposes such as adhesives, sealants and coatings to provide a gap-free insulation around the components in the areas where they are used.
In calculating the effectiveness of an epoxy adhesive, it is useful to analyze the general formulation of the compounds that make up it. Epoxies are formed by polymerizing a mixture of two starting compounds, resin and hardener. When the resin is mixed with a particular catalyst, curing is initiated. Curing is the process in which molecular chains react in chemically active regions and cause an exothermic reaction. The covalent bonds between the epoxide groups of the resin and the amine groups of the hardener (catalyst) resulting from this combination provide cross-linking of the polymer and thus determine the hardness and strength of the epoxy. Epoxy is a very strong adhesive. You can get price information from our technical experts about epoxy prices.
Two Component System
Monitoring the curing conditions with temperature and the choice of resin and hardening compounds allows changing the mechanical strength properties and thermal, electrical and chemical resistance. This is why epoxy adhesives have been developed to suit a wide variety of applications and operating conditions.
Epoxy floor covering adhesives adhere to a wide variety of materials and their properties depend on the specific chemistry of the system and the nature of the crosslinking present. Some of the most important performance requirements are outstanding chemical and heat resistance, excellent adhesion and water resistance, as well as satisfactory mechanical and electrical insulation properties.
Single Component System
As the most commonly used structural type adhesive, epoxy adhesives are usually offered as a one-component or two-component system. One-component epoxy adhesives typically form at temperatures between 250-300 ° F, under conditions that operate a product with high strength, excellent adhesion to metals, and exceptional environmental and harsh chemical resistance. In fact, this product is often used as an alternative to welding and rivets.
Single component systems are pre-catalyzed and require only moderate heat to cure, increase efficiency and avoid errors due to air retention. Also, the curing speed is faster than two component systems.
Two-component epoxy systems are different from alloying occurring at ambient temperatures and can be accelerated by heat. Adding heat also promotes additional crosslinking resulting in superior properties. Two-component systems are suitable for bonding to most surfaces. They are considered highly stable due to their resistance to physical and chemical influences, as well as their ability to withstand a constant weight or force over a long period of time. In addition, their ability to withstand a constant weight or power over a long period of time, as well as their excellent resistance to physical and chemical influences, make two-component epoxies a highly stable product. They are highly versatile and can be used for bonding, sealing, coating and encapsulation in many industries including but not limited to electronics, medical devices, and aerospace. Special formulations are also flame retardant, cryogenically, fast curing, more resistant to high temperatures.
EPOXY COATING
PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
Epoxy is a chemical resin. It does not lose its resistance feature over time, as it has good resistance to water and acid. It is also a surface coating product. It can also be used as a paint and primer. It has high chemical and mechanical resistance. There is no fire hazard due to its solvent free nature. It is resistant to diesel petrol, yet fuel, (JP4) alcohol and many solvents. Since it is not made with the method of addition, there are no spots where bacterial dirt can multiply. One type of resin in which two liquid substances are mixed together in the right proportions and transformed into a solid substance that feels plastic through a chemical reaction is called epoxy.
FEATURES and USAGE AREAS
It does not pose a fire hazard as it is solvent-free. It is easy to clean, does not contain bacteria, does not cause dust, it is harmless to health. It has a liquid-proof feature. It is resistant to many solvents. It can be used in Textile Factories, Food Industry, Pharmaceutical Factory, Automobile Services, Petrochemical Facilities, Hospitals, Airplane Hangars, Tire Factories, Warehouses, Stores, Sports Halls and many more.
