What are Epoxy Adhesives?
Epoxy adhesives belong to the class of adhesives known as "structural adhesives." They are liquid reactive polymers that undergo a chemical reaction when mixed and cure to form a solid plastic material. These adhesives offer high shear and peel strengths, superior heat and chemical resistance, and excellent performance in various applications. Epoxy adhesives are widely used in building and home construction, aircraft and automobile manufacturing, sports equipment assembly, and many other industries. They provide strong bonds and resistance to environmental conditions, making them a popular choice for a wide range of bonding needs.
Industrial uses for epoxies extend beyond adhesives and include coatings and composite materials like carbon fiber and glass-reinforced composites. Their ability to flow and conform to the work area, along with their strong adhesion, chemical and heat resistance, and exceptional mechanical and electrical insulating properties, make them the preferred choice in many industries.
