Resin Epoxy Adhesive and Hardener Manufacturing Industry. Two-Part Epoxy Adhesives. Adhesive Based on Epoxy Resin (Two Part)
Epoxy adhesives are high strength adhesives used extensively across various industries. They are made of epoxy resins, which are in turn made up of the chemical Bisphenol A. Epoxy adhesives can be used for adhesion of numerous substrates such as wood, metals, plastics, glass and stones. After application, epoxy adhesives require time for curing or setting. This can be done with the help of heat or by exposure to ultra violet light or at room temperature.
The epoxy adhesives cured by exposure to ultra violet light are used to manufacture fiber optics and opto electronics. Epoxy adhesives have strong adhesion which makes them the most commonly used structural adhesives.
Epoxy resin adhesives have many uses in industrial applications. They generally consist of resin and hardening agents. Curing epoxy adhesives can take place either at room or elevated temperature, or through photoinitiators and UV light. Modern photoinitiators also react to the special UV spectrum of LED light sources, so that newly developed epoxide resin adhesives can be cured with both UV and UV LED light.
