Epoxy resin
The resin is the base of the system and is selected according to the intended application.
Products are supplied as two-component resin and hardener systems, pre-dosed according to the manufacturer’s specifications.
Resin and hardener are stored separately until use
A two-component epoxy system consists of resin — component A — and hardener — component B. They are combined only in the ratio stated in the technical data sheet. Mixing starts the curing reaction and gives the material a limited working period known as pot life. Mixing ratio, working time and curing conditions vary by system.
The resin is the base of the system and is selected according to the intended application.
The compatible hardener initiates curing and influences the final properties of the cured material.
The material’s working time starts once it is homogenised, so the specified ratio and instructions for the selected system must be followed.
Each application requires a specific resin and hardener combination. We select the system according to the substrate, operating conditions and finish requirements.
